Life is full of a longing

hope

to see a handsome face

A smile, a laugh

a dimpled cheek

a mental swoon for this;

your doom

You hear his name

whisper it with sweet caress

He shall linger here

like sweet fresh air

The brush of lips

a murmured dream

your own black knight

begins to croon

And then the man you thought

twas yours runs

you through with

white-hot sword

Shrieks of madness

horrible hurt

the envious shadow

engulfs thy

light

Honor-bound white knight

with gleaming shield

tear through her

vicious veil

Erase the hurt within hazel eyes

help her now as she must rise

Damsel stop, look deep unto

those dark blue eyes that

ring of truth

Don't glance behind

you can't-you won't

As abandoned one

dressed black

from

head to foot

Lets loose a haunting

keen

A lost knight's call

for what

could have been
