Wounded Prince

Flamboyant prince on your white horse
Searching the valley for your blood’s source
Once blue robes not crimson red
You’re finding a place to lay down your head
Oh little boy in sadness you weep
Your mother’s abandoned but this love you keep
Look to the fields where the poppies now grow
The seeds are scattered each time they sow
Discarded among warriors bold
No secret stories of you have been told
But brave though you were only one saw you fight
Only the one who felt your full might
Sadness envelops your unguarded heart
Let it be a greeting each time you depart
Look to new lands to find fortunes new
Each time you pass by I’m wishing for you
