He touched me through distance...a touch through time and space
I could not hear his words, but could understand their meaning
I could not see his face, but saw the beauty inside of him
I could not touch his being, but could feel his powerful presence
I knew him not, but felt like he was my soul
One man, one chance, one night
A night that could change my life forever
A chance to learn to love and trust again
A man that could see deep inside me
I reached for him and found him there waiting...waiting to touch me
Not my physical being, but a touch that goes much deeper
He reached down within the hurt caused by others
And found a minute piece of life that still existed
He took his love, his heart, his soul and used them to breathe more life into me
Slowly I responded to his attempts
Day by day I became more alive
Opening up doors that I had thought were locked forever
One by one we walked through the doors together
Facing the past and conquering the fears
Places that contained hurt now were being overcome with happiness
Feelings of despair were now being replaced with hope
Thoughts of hate were now being overtaken by feelings of love
A once shattered woman now becoming a beautiful fair lady
Was he a knight in shining armor or just a brave warrior?
Which ever he was, he won the battle
A battle I thought no man could ever win
He conquered the evil, found beauty hidden within,
And made dreams become realities
But most of all...
Made me realize that fairy tales do come true

Sis...I'm happy that battle was won. Still searching for my knight, hey, I'll even settle for a mere peasant

This Dark Knight will ever be at your service, my Lady. Chivalry, truly is not dead. It only gasps for a breath.
