Your Knight

by XandriaRaeQ

April 8, 2016

I’ll be your knight in shining armor

So please don’t go away

I will love and protect you

For as long as you shall live.

Though my armor may be dull

And my body not as strong

I will lay down my life

My soul,

My being,

My all,

For you,

My love

So that you may love me as I love you.

We are not perfect

(You and I both)

You with your temper,

I with my strength.

I flaunt my faults and oddities proudly

And relish yours with mine.

Together we could be perfect

(You and I both)

For one and one makes one.

Imperfection and imperfection make perfection.

I may not be strong

I may not be swift.

My sword may not be the sharpest

And my arrows not the straightest.

But, my love, I swear upon the highest truth

My will power does not fail

My mind is quick.

My hands will never hurt you

And my love for you will never end.

So I will be your knight in the dull armor

So please look this way.

I will love you, and I will protect you

For as long as I may live.

I will be there for you

My love

And although you may not see it

Hear it

Notice it

Notice me

I will be there

For my love for you is strong

Although my blade is not

And one day

I wish that you may love me

As I love you.
