No Knight in Her
Days
She tore down the
splendor of romance
And built a wall stone
by stone
Too fragile to open the
barricade
From behind the
fortressed walls alone.
A doubting damsel
without belief
A knight would brave it
all
To unbind her from the
loneliness
And free her from the
prisoned wall.
Against her scarred and
damaged soul
From swords of past gone
years
A knight would not be
patient enough
To tear down her wall of
fears.
No knight would take the
challenge
To find the beauty that
lies therein
So she dwells sheltered
and secluded
Behind her lonely walls
within.
