The Knight Who Never Said Good Night

You fight to free every kingdom,
nbut your home is what you vow to shield forever,
nnot yourself.
nYou don't care for a single gold coin nor bags of wealth.
nYou bless every innocent child with good health.
nYou don't care for the comfort of a famous throne.
nJustice lives in each and every bone.

When you strike down evil forces,
nyou get a rush.
nIt is never crimson blood, but change you hope to shed and gush.
nWhen you get injured, you never complain,
neven with an arrow that nearly nicked your brain.
nYou do not care when others call you insane.
nTo you,
nit is insanity,
nthat most across this land pursue war.
nand have cut down their humanity.

In every cherished memory,
nyou will vanquish a heartless enemy.
nWith the constant perilous danger, you face,
nyou must challenge those who ride through life
nat a most unrighteous pace.
nThus you embark upon a never-ending fight.
nthrough the burning morning and hollow night
nFireflies and stars guide you.
nYou only permit followers whose hearts hum true.

Among this world,
nyou are a good knight.
nLove serves as your armor and is what you wield.
nYou never will let others charge before you on the battlefield.
nYou will always hold out a hand to anyone in need of assistance.
nYou will never let peace get knocked down by any villainous resistance.
nYou will no longer support being a sacrificial magnet for war.
nHelping others is at your castle's core.

You will inspire.
nYou will smite all unnecessary churning fire.
nAnyone who tells you to hush will eat coal,
nfor the pain of others:
nmothers,
nsisters,
nfathers,
nbrothers,
nsons and daughters
nleft behind without any source of food, water nor bowl
npowers your soul.
nChange will forever be your legendary mark and ultimate goal!

- Vevna Forrow
