No Surrender

I thought that you may be the knight The colors waved seemed true I let down the fortress around my heart On a black steed you rode through Not a damsel in distress My world was pure and good No need for any rescue I knew just where I stood The many colors you displayed Were from damsels before me The lance you carry pierced their hearts But I refused to see The fortress before was so secure No chance of penetration The knowledge that I learned before Protecting my heart’s foundation The damage that’s been done here May never be repaired There may be to much carnage From the short time you were there I will need a deeper moat A wall that can’t be breached For my self preservation For a heart that won’t be reached My heart will not surrender It will stay locked up in the tower Never trusting, never loving Never to be empowered
