The Knight

A deep voice surrounds her
And whispers words so sweet
It echos all around her
And sweeps her off her feet.

She feels strong arms catch her
Before she falls to the ground
She looks up to find her saviour
But her saviour isn't found.

She can feel his tight grip
She feels warm in his embrace
She stares so hard in the darkness
But she cannot see his face.

He caressed her lips with his
Sweetened fragrence filled the air
She could feel his hands on her
But when she looked no one was there.

The dark figure lurks the room
She tries to find the light
But when she turned it on
There was no one in her sight.

A rose was laying on the floor
In this room of nothing but white.
With a note attached that read
"You will see me soon, signed the Knight."

Saddness struck her heart
But her Knight did run away
How long will she have to wait
Until this Knight will stay?
