My Coat of Arms

My crest placed upon my helmet with the surname of May upon it
Anglo-Saxon decent, I wish to capture my Lady’s eye Sitting tall on
My steed prepared for war. 

My lady locked in the Kings Tower watching her tears flowing down,
A silent call for help through her tortured eyes, bond to the 
Kings bed with his chains of tormented unable to be released.

I have climbed up her tower to release her by slicing these chains with 
My sword, wiping her tears with a fine white cloth, reaching into her 
Heart with comfort, easing her pain.

I have placed my coat of arms upon her head for we have wed,
The old King is gone for his tower tumbled down giving her freedom
To wed. 

This story passed down from the old, for I have now been replaced 
By another, my helmet tarnished and my coat of arms replaced now
I sit in the tower bond by invisible chains.
