Gervic's GoT challenge responses |
Dragon's lair, a scene I know too well, My steed and I, another damsel's yell. A hero's heart, in shining armor clad, But marriage bells, for me, have never had. The beast subdued, the princess freed at last, Tears in her eyes, a fleeting, grateful glance. "My savior brave!" she cries, with joyous sigh, Love's spark unseen, behind her thankful eye. Back to the court, the cheers, a hollow ring, Another quest, another lonely king. Is this the path, for one who fights and saves? A hero's heart, forever built for graves? But hope remains, a flicker in the night, Someday a love, that sees beyond the fight. Till then, I ride, for glory and for need, A hidden love, a valiant, lonely deed. WORD COUNT: 124 Words LINE COUNT: 16 Lines PROMPT: WHAT'S HIS STORY? Prompt #4. You are a knight on the way to save a princess, which is something you do on a weekly basis. Unfortunately, no princess has been interested in marrying you, even after witnessing your heroic acts.
