To protect his love he swore

Gave her the last kiss

Picked up his sword

Went to war

There, on the battle field

His wounds never healed

All he thought of

Was his love

Her pain after he dies.

He found a way

For her pain to allay

He wrote a note

Attached it to a dove

Sent his sign of peace and love

Far away

In his love's embrace.

There, on the battle field

He laid on sand

Happy because his duty was finished

His love untouched.

Unhurt.

Protected.
