Vows once sacred broken, not a thing they meant <br />Secrets still unspoken, into darkness a Knight's descent <br />This once noble, holy man, now a shadow of his former form <br />Once sworn to justice and the light, now to darkness is he sworn <br />The Knight of Shadow, the betrayer true, his honor cast aside <br />Forever cast out from holy light, in shadow he must hide <br />A sword of darkness, bloodstained and black <br />Waiting in darkness, to spring, attack <br />The Knight of Shadow within the dark <br />Stands in silece, a silhouette stark <br />Sacred vows now broken, in shadow he now resides <br />Secret deeds unspoken, but to the shadows he confides <br />In darkness he shall whisper, from now to end of time <br />A shade within the shadow, until the Reaper's bell does chime.<br /><br />Tim Vallie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-knight-of-shadow/
