Time strikes hard like the hammer of a jackknife
Cutting through the fabric of your lifeline
Entwined in loops, so many one forgets those stories that were once not tales to tell but the life you experienced.

And another second passes by
And you look all about
And you take a deep breathe
And the hammer knocks another nail like the infamous stake through the heart of the dead who are living life forever and forever ever mourning the mistake they once made to stop time in place, stop the hammering knocking down the rails, to stop the round and round to live life in one endless night

A vampire I am not, but Bram Stoker was a genius, in his writings it was he who caught the stunning beauty that is the tragedy of time.

I don't want
A knight in shining armor
I don't need to be saved

I just want
Someone to talk to,
So I won't be so lonely

I just want
Someone to like me,
For me

I just want
Someone who is kind,
And will not hurt me

I just want
Someone who is funny
And makes me laugh

I just want
Someone who makes me happy
For a change

So maybe I do want to be saved,
Maybe I need a knight in shining armor

One might think
I am waiting for my knight
In shining armour, to come on his
Glorious white horse

No, I wait for my knight
With spots of rust on his armour
With weakened metal
With a war horse that limps

I'll ride on his horse
And love him not for his shiny armour
Not for his immaculate horse
Not for his perfection

We each have dark pasts
Riddled with unspeakable mistakes
Mistakes which we wish to eradicate
And we will

I'll love him for his flaws
I'll know every inch of his skin
I'll know his past, his present
And we'll create a future

Snow white hair,
Ruby eyes.
Her knighted beast
By her side
To protect her soul from harm
In tell he eats it with his claws.
I haven't been on lately so I thought a nice little poem could be nice
I am no longer the prince to my beautiful princess

I am no longer the hero worthy of her greatness

I am the faceless knight clad in shadow

I am the protector of my lady from all things un-hallow

I am the shield that blocks all her sadness

I am the sword that conquers all her darkness

I am clad in armor black as night

I am the bearer of the sword which is evil’s blight

I am never to be known for I battle in faraway lands

I am never to be known for I slay my dragons in unknown sands

I am the hero of the story she will never be told

I am the hero of the story she will never behold

I am the tomb marked by a single red sword

I am the tomb depicting the battle against evil’s horde

I am the faceless knight who will always protect my lost love

I am the Shadowed knight who will never feel the peace of the dove
Any advice on it wild be really helpful
Oh maiden of white,
Don in veil and dress, black as night,
Your voice projects dark tones,
To calm the cries of bright halos.

Oh maiden of white,
You dance under the moonlight,
Your shadow hides the truth,
To expose the lies of the world's boons.

Oh knight of light,
Clad in gear and mail, your face out of sight,
Your bravery showers the evil,
To show your smiles of good will.

Oh knight of light,
You cut through your foes with might,
Giving out an outstretched hand,
To turn every person into your friend.

Oh maiden and knight of white light,
Together you hold hands and fight,
To show the world, light in darkness,
While loving one another relentless.
A poem dedicated to two of my great friends.
