Fable of the Fall

Once casting violent rays
The setting sun will fall
Among the depth of the haze
The darkness will swallow all

Inside a deep vast cave
A new hero will rise
The princess he will save
And bring darkness to demise

But he faces many troubles
Along his dreary path
The danger on earth just doubles
Will darkness bring its wrath?

With his sword and shield
The hero carries on
Within his soul will yield
A truth that was once gone

This is how I perceive you, Matthan, as a risen warrior hero. And you make ladies wish we call all be your princess. Powerful write filled with emotion. Love it! Love, Carolyn
