Lonely Knight
Lonely Knight
To some,
it’s just a another picture on the wall,
but, to me, it’s not that at all.
It’s a picture of you and me on vacation
making sand castles on the beach
during a week-long tropical honeymoon.
Time, like the waves that wash on the shore,
have taken the grand sand towers away, and
you were not with me yesterday or today.
With the picture in my hand, your love for me
will always have a special place in my heart.
It’s hard to know you’ll never be back, and
I’ll miss the way you make that funny smile.
I found the princess imprisoned in the tower,
and tried my best to save you from the dragon,
but this knight could not fight your fate.
Maybe I was too late. I’ll never know for sure.
The frame is going into a box, and I’m moving,
again, since it’s hard to call this place home.
