It's a shame that sometimes the heart can shatter,

Shatter just like glass,

Break into a million pieces,

A million pieces that can't be found.

She thought that he loved her,

She though that he cared,

But it was her beauty yet again,

Her beauty that betrayed her…like always.

Unbidden tears,

Stream from her face,

Her father wants her to end it,

End it using guile.

He delicate hands grip the sheets,

Her tears a lake of sadness,

She wants to disappear,

Disappear into the deepening darkness.

Months pass by like years,

And suddenly a man appears,

A golden knight in shining armour,

A knight with a halberd and plumes.

Her heart stops,

Her breath hitches,

Is this man her salvation?

The salvation she has been waiting in vain for.

Alas, disaster strikes,

As he bows before the king,

He is the adopted son of that man,

That man who seeks to ruin her.

Despair!

Her fragile self

Shattering once more,

Shattering under the weight of her love.

Destruction reigns upon the land,

The knight, her knight

On his fiery steed comes charging,

Piercing the heart of the king,

Just like he pierced her heart with his love.

A delicate flower,

Crushed by such cruel hands,

Restored by a knight,

A knight clumsy in love.
