A goddess of all
Rules with a kind, playful heart
Works and plays all day,
Not a minute astray
Happiness to all who meet her gaze
They will surely be in a daze

Her face always towards paper
She'll put it down, only later.
Helps her escape...
From the madness and insanity,
Known as her world.

Betrayals and struggles...
Between her superiors
And Lust
Escape is a must

She finds herself in a realm
Under dark forces rule.
She smiles, as she fights
To forget her past so cruel

In the midst of her battles
She meets a man
Young but old
He's been here before,
From the stories he told

Their time is brief,
But worthwhile
Hail from the same realm
One human, the other a goddess
One account pleasant, the other vile

Returning to the Goddess' home of gold
The human scoffs for he can see the mold

Lust attacks,
Using her assets to keep him
More than intact
He backs away, drawing his sword
He will attack, even his lords

No time wasted
No stone unturned
As more time faded
They grew more firm

He knew he must protect her
But doesn't know why
A past obligation?
A long-awaited friend?
Was he in love with her?

Whatever it was
He never brought down his guard
Even while having fun
He never let up

From suitors trying to marry her
To her superior's tyranny,
He never let go of this sword
To expel villainy

Their individual chapters close
From having fun, to slaying foes
The sun sets, he continues his duty
Thus, opens another entry
As her Eternal Sentry.
