Comanche man

As far as the naked eye could see.
We rode our horse comanche man and me.
We rode in snow and in the rain.
Through the mountains and grassy plain.
We forged for food lived off the land.
Like his ancestors from way back when.
Then one night we stumbled on a bear.
Thats when comanche man dissapeared.
So on my own with just a knife.
I faught this bear for my dear life.
The fight was long till the bear digressed.
I put the blade between his breast.
He looked at me with his gentle eyes.
A finally moan before he dies.
Then I thanked the bear for his life.
I dressed him out and cleaned my knife.                                                                               Paused a minute and looked around.       
For my dear friend could not be found.
Then it dawn on me he was never there.                                                                                       It was just my test,my test the bear.
