Act I - The Knight
I thought to tell a tale of woe
but truth wish not to bend
and so instead I speak of love
with hearts that had to mend
It happened quite some time ago
when dragons roamed the land
and knights wore armor made of gold
with silver swords in hand
There came a young knight brave and strong
whose skill no one could match
with bow or sword it mattered not
he never felt a scratch
he parried every thrust he met
until opponents wept
with tears of sheer exhaustion spent
defeat they did accept
Then came the day that struck a blow
to heart as well as skin
a new opponent he did face
who took him for the win
And thus begins our tale of love
in shadows filled with woe
this poor young knight with broken heart
has met more than a foe
but truth wish not to bend
and so instead I speak of love
with hearts that had to mend

Act II - The Princess
It happened quite some time ago
when dragons roamed the land
and princesses were lady-like
in gowns with fans in hand
There was a princess strong of will
whose gowns were laced with jewels
she wished to wield a mighty sword
regardless of the rules
she begged the king to change the law
but he refused to sway
and so there was no choice for her
but find another way
A plan she did at last conceive
a simple plan it seemed
to dress the part in clothes of men
as only she had dreamed
Upon the practice yard she went
to see what she could glean
yet every mighty thrust did show
a skill no one had seen
she made her way all through the ranks
and never missed a beat
'til finally she lost her heart
and almost saw defeat
rebound she did and just in time
to meet his heavy blow
she spun around and struck him true
with her lost heart in tow
And so on goes our tale of love
in shadows filled with woe
our princess wields her sword with force
and make herself a foe
