Walking back down the path I wondered many moons ago Back around the time I read Behind My Angel Glow Finding my dark sword, still stuck through that old oak tree My dark armor, my trench coat, still lying there plainly
It was here in this place, I was knighted to serve a new queen A woman of beauty, the likes of which Id never seen I jabbed this old blade through the bark tired of living in the past Knowing I had found the one, that would end my pain at last
With a hand outstretched, I retrieved it from its slumber With a couple of grunts, it recovered from the mighty lumber Choosing not to cloak myself, in midnights hue once more I instead return to the peacefulness of the castle grounds, dressed as before
Taking needle and thread, I modify the armor with care Embroidering my eternal love, into the leather that is there Inserting a letter into the pocket, sealing it with an angels kiss Accepting that only the best could actually come from this
Scrawled upon the page, my handwriting at its best Small spots mixed with ink, marking where my tears came to rest Upon that page, I reluctantly grant her request Time to make sense, of her lifes mess
She asked me for time to put her past fully behind Not the first time I had the misfortune of hearing those lines Deep inside though I have reason to believe itll be different this time Which is why, Ive composed this little gift package, to go with my rhyme
Giving her the black armor I once wore And the sword I used to spill my demons blood on the floor Leaving the gifts, where wed danced under the stars before Right where, I know shell find them for sure
Knowing that while wearing the armor shell feel my embrace And I hope she can use it, to draw up her up her strength Hoping that the love I used to sharpen the blade gives it a stronger edge And shell always be reminded of the love for that Ive pledged
-But as for me, her knight, I know what I must do Ill lurk within the chambers of her heart proving my promise true Hiding in the shadows, with a crossbow ready to fire Ready to do whatever it takes, to protect my loves fire
