Till death (loyal knight)

by Alanis   Sep 6, 2012


I shall fight till death
Thou art worthy of
My pathetic soulless
Life. Till thy last breath
I shall fight for thee
Worthy cause.

Wretched enemies
Stalk thy every
Move. Hideous
Creatures find
Thou displeasing
Thou righteous
Man shall never please
Everyone's eyes.

This land screams with
The blood of thy four
Fathers' murders.
Could thy beauty be next?
I protect thy with all I am

Not because I hath to.
Not because I hath nowhere
To go. But for I am the loyal
Knight who shall lay down his
Life for her honour.

    This is the first time i have read your poetry....the old english pulled me in, i have written a few an i love the way the language flows in pieces like this :-)0

    you threw out some amazing imagery here it is n awesome write...i do hve two suggestion...thats all they are you could change the "your" into a thee and where you have written "have" you could change to "hath" i know its just nit - picking but i know how easy it is to mingle the two text - modern and old together....any way like i say just a suggestion :-)

    Thou displeasing.
