Knight In Shining Armor

You wanted
a knight in shining armor
that I could never be
but you were too shortsighted
to realize that I knew the path
to your liberation

and you turned a blind eye
when I tried
to point out the road home
ignored my every whisper
as the clues 
went blindly unexamined

Isn't this the truth? It resounds with purity so I recognized it as such.
