Setting in a cloaking shadow,
a glitter in his eye..
his gaze unwavering
and a window he doth spy..
Encroached in the evening, he make his move..

Wandering those walls, feeling entraped..
her fathers decree chafing her
She need what was denied..
that single crave..calling from beyond..
and as te sun sets, tear fount..
from passion denied eyes..

With the spirit of a knave,
and the heart of a old code knight
he scales though cold stone walls..
with visions of the embracing warmth within..
he steels his heart..
hoping to steal hers..

A scratch at the ceil,
and a breath in a sigh..
she flings the curtains wide
she finds wide eyes to gaze into
to be lost within..
and she to sighs

Eyes met, hearts interweaved..breath in turn
he is lost in her, she lost in him
and in the night, to make one..
and the fires in that great keep..
were tame to compare..
to the fire shared in to lover chest..

He awoke the next morning,
scensing something amiss,
he dashed up the stairwell,
and through the oaken door..
a shout of loss,
and cry of dispair.. he saw note but rumpled sheets..

and the sun tucked the night away...

and the king lost his daughter..
and a Bard gained him muse..
Two lovers merged, forged in their passion
and the scene was portrait...
and the night a frame...
and the gods once again laughed at their creation...

He is lost in her, she lost in him.

It's a nice goal to have, but oh so rare.

Nice imagery.
