Love Poem: My Maiden Trapped

My Maiden Trapped

My lady waits in yonder tower
Trapped, locked in the room
I will prevail, save her this night
Release her from her gloom

She calls to me, I hear her clear
As my steed approaches fast
The power of that lock and key
Cannot forever last

For I will break down the old door
It’s strong, but my will is stronger
As I will take her in my arms
And hold her even longer

No force, other than I will know
Just how to hold this maiden
For I will hold with lovers grip
To satisfy her cravings

Upon the morn, at dawns new break
When I let down my shield
She too, will lay hers aside
To taste of love so real

No castle made can keep apart
This maiden and her knight
For I will seek and find her heart
To provide her with delight
