LOVES SOLDIERS

Deep within the lovers soul
A raging fire burns
A kiln to forge the soldiers tools
For peace and faith he yearns

Born when first the feelings stirred
The day they met by chance
He toils in the furnace heat
Readying his shield and lance

The couple share a warm embrace
Unaware of the heroes plight
He battles foes of mixed emotions
When the troubled twosome fight

As time goes by and feelings fade
The lovers hardly speak
Their flame is now has embers,
Loves knight grows old and weak

The pair travel separate paths
With no last words to say
The final battle dealt the blow
Loves soldiers passed away
