Eternal Love

Hand in hand do they walk.
Pausing only to look into each others eyes.
Creatures of night and of shadow destined to be together.
Her a princess from the ruling family and he a noble prince from a land afar.
Brought together when all her hope was lost.
He came to put a claim upon the damsels broken heart.
Turned cold and bitter by her last lovers scorn she chooses no man to be by her side.
Until one day she looked into this newcomers eyes.
He look of a kind and docile nature but held himself as a fearless knight.
Realizing that he has caught the cold ones eyes and bows his head to her King father and Queen mother and then to her holding her eyes within his gaze.
She watches him so and blushes red and slowly inclines her head.
Later he finds her among her court and asks her if she would come for a walk.
Forever does it seem they talk and more and more did the flirtations as well.
As dawns light approaches did they say farewell.
So long had she been in her solitude, so had she forgot the feeling of contempt.
Days go by and still he wants to be by her side so that he may know more.
Until one day he held her in his arms did she realize that maybe this was meant to be.
His voice calmed her and brought warmth to her cold broken heart.
His eyes promised joy and happiness.
His embrace foretold her safety and no harm could come to her.
His kisses spoke of eternal love.
