Alone dark tower a garden bower The throne bequest her desperate mess The bride she cries adorned in black cobwebs drown her fate in fact she whimpers softly, "It's much too late." The steed be strong! muscles taut delivering a knight one whom has fought battlescars and blood adorn his suit armor of steel and velvet boot Belfry BOOM ding - dong DOOM a wedding march she greets the groom A step of toe bought, borrowed and blue wrought iron gate resonates through This knight, a man on knee now bent into her eyes desire, intent Removes his armor to reveal one word She gasps, her hand falls from mouth she heard A beat within long since been dead locks of bun fall from thy head eyes are locked in love at last! This knight now stands It has come to pass! A single rose adorned for Thee unclasps his belt a silken rope His coat undone his armor bare upon his chest her gaze does stare For here reflected His crest doth shine stained glass deflected two eyes in time What may he bring? This interlope? Upon his chest a glint of H O P E /pip/Forum7/HTML/000573.html [This message has been edited by littlewing (07-26-2003 11:28 PM).] |
