STILL SHE WAITS

No knight in shining armor does she search for
Hope and despair infiltrate her soul to darken it
The dream of true love does she now abhor
Pangs of self pity she’ll never admit
Still she waits

No longer enchanted by once was sought
The stars in her blue eyes faded and gone
Lines of love no longer bought
Unwilling to confess that she feels forlorn
Still she waits

Then, to her surprise, alas her knight finally appears,
At the time he’s needed and makes her heart roast
Gone are the loneliness and all of her fears,
For she’s found what was needed the most
Still she waits…but now has found hope
