For love she did defend

For love she did defend

A Poem by EmpressPoetess
"

A tragic love story.

"

Dust covered dreams of wedded bliss
Crushed beneath her feet over one kiss
Promised to be wed to the King’s son
But by the King’s knight, her heart was won

Found was she, kissing the King's knight
Drawn into his arms, it felt so right
Was it wrong to love a man so worthy?
now her knight has met a fate worst than she

Her actions to the King, she did defend
She's left to ponder passion’s wretched end
Now all her hopes and dreams lay vanishing
Damned because she was so ravishing

Tossed was she, into a darkened cell
For evermore her life's a living hell

A story of love and passion... and a longing for what will never be... a spring hope that will forever remain in winter... Such a sadness swept over me.
