Chivalry

My princess smiles softly.                                My princess has been taken from me.
I peer her grace through flimsy glass.            But I am too far away.


She starts and spies me.                                Impatient for her salvation close at hand,
I press my face against a window pane.        She leaps, her gentle eyes shut.

A dim horror flickered in her lips.                    Demanding she come to him,
She fumbles for a candle.                                The black knight bellows for her.

Eyes wide, she gasps.                                    No escape in sight.
She moves to the door.                                  She stands at the edge.

She run through the dark halls.                        I will not be swayed.
She Shrieks and begs for safety.                    I will chase after my love.

A monster for me to defeat.                            A dragon passes her.
A dragon passes by her.                                  A monster for me to defeat.

I will chase after my love.                                She shrieks and begs for safety.         
I will not be swayed.                                        She runs through the dark halls.

She stands at the edge                                    She moves to the door. 
No escape in sight.                                          Eyes wide, she gasps.

The black knight bellows for her,                      She fumbles for a candle.
Demanding that she come to him                      A dim horror flickered on her lips.

She leaps, her gentle eyes shut,                        I press my face against a window pane.
Impatient for her salvation close at hand.          She starts and spies me.

But I am too far away.                                        I peer her grace through flimsy glass.
My princess has been taken from me.              My princess smiles softly.
