A Tale So Often Told
I gaze upon you from afar
In a castle on a cliffside
Where I can never reside
But where my true heart hides
You, a knight so brazen bold
Caught in histories often told
Sees me outside his cage of gold
Unspoken words, bought and sold
Virtue becomes a question
A debate never to hasten
But a desire that never lessens
May be where truth destines
O, knight so valiant and fair
Take heed and take care
This faire maiden’s curse cries “beware!
Venture close if you dare!”
