Starry Knight Poem by julie kops

In her castle made of ice
on a lonely mountainside
an echo of forgotten hope
her dreams again denied

He can see her silhoutte
against the twilight moon
He listens to her silence
feels her soul play its empty tune

She wanders through the mist filled rooms
Remembering precious moments of yesterdays
How it felt to be carried off in dance
amongst the stars and milky way

He wonders dare I try
to scale the forbidding heights
when I finally reach her there
Will she see beneath this worn disguise?

She sees a star fall silently
And makes 1 last request
1 chance,1hope,1dream,
a love that will always stand the test

He sees her starlit shadow turn
He follows the traces of her tears
He knows he has to take this chance
to rise beyond his fears

As she lays softly across the pillow
She dreams lost in loving arms,
A kiss, A smile, A tenderness,
Sweet compassion's truest charms

He knows the pain in her story
Yet in his heart he cannot go astray
Just to see her secret smile
He will conquer all her trust betrayed

They find each other finally
In loves sweet eternal dance
All because 1 brave knight
Dared to take the chance...
