My Knight

My throat gets tight
My eyes are slowly closing

I look around
And you're no where to be found

I long to cry
And to die

I look up and see the light
No shadow to shield my eyes

My heart pounds in my chest
I smell that familiar smell

I look up and and there you are
Looking down at me

Our eyes meet and I smile
You take my hand and hold me tight

I look at you and say,
"Welcome home my knight"
