A White Rose In the Dark of Night

Silence as the days go by A world were kindness is no more But one maiden He could adore So pure as not able to lie She could sing as thou no voice could be heard As He would describe Her as a white rose in the night So gentle yet fierce to fight She always stirred So softly as thou someone was always looking at Her Mighty as He could be But all She could see Was love and despair? Yet She cared so slightly for her thoughts Nor He was sound with thoughts of love Messages were sent on a snow-white dove To share the fait of harmony Yet interference was strong A snake some might day And when she would stray There was a terrible song But brave as a lion be Brought Her back Yet once more interference would attack But win no less Days of happiness would go by And tunes of sorrow would disappear Yet She felt rain upon her eyes And He brought sun light to Her sight Wishing She could dance till midnight Telling Her to carry on And say no more till dawn Yet time was at its might He wanted Her to whisk away And listen to the loud crashing bells Hopefully no one tells The secrets He has told this day Horses riding to the shore Only two Me and You Smell the flowers strong and mild Beauty as She is But She could only see Her faults He wished She lived in happiness Moons and suns would change And stars would gain and loose And planets would rearrange Because love was found and lost The day He slept silently A Dragon awakened angrily But She had slept restlessly The Dragon stepped so harshly Awakened Her up And felt fire as hot as the sun She felt the need to run But bravely stopped to look upon Him But the Dragon grabbed Her with his claws He stood tall with a powerful strength He grabbed his sword at length And fought the Dragon for His White Rose She was sound not scared at all He slashed up and got a hit It created a large slit And the Dragon fell She clasped in his claws He managed to release Her They walked away in joyful steppes Looking back at the dreadful sight Rebels came to stare away Drained the blood of the Dragon And when they were done They walked away With happy faces She felt hurt for He was wounded He felt strengthened for She was saved
