By Night’s Fall

Love will conquer...
Shining, Gleaming his body of steel.
Harden by will not by war.

By Kings order he will go.
To defend till death.
Victory is his reward,
Death his companion.

This he will bear until there is no more,
Not for kingdoms nor for riches……
But the love of a maiden.

Her beauty an arrow
Her aura the force
Penetrates his armour with such a force.

Taking his heart…..
By night’s fall
Victory will come to him no more
