Young Maiden And Her KnightA young maiden runs down the stairs Whisps past the castle doors, Her Knight is heading off to battle Her love for him, every day, soars. She was told to stay inside But she couldn't let him leave, He rode up to the draw bridge As he didn't want to see her grieve. She leaned over the stone stair casing To see him off, He bid her a short goodbye But her father, the King, walked up behind her and scoffed. "You're mother is not going to like this We told you to stay inside," "I'm not a coward, father," she exclaimed "In the castle, I shall not hide." The young maiden dried her tears And said goodbye to her Knight, When out of the shadows, he was stabbed with a sword Blood splattered all over her gown of white. She screamed out in horror Her father, held onto to her tight, This ends a short lived love story Of the young maiden and her Knight.
