A love story


He stands upon the hill sword in hand
He comes over the sea from a distant land 
Men come to build his kingdoms walls
Maids and servants fill his halls
A mighty king sits upon the thrown
With no queen to call his own
Walking alone through forests dark
A sudden movement a glimmering spark
A maiden sits upon a stone
Thinking quietly she's all alone
Without a sound he moves to her side
When she looks up,
Thier love rises like the tides
They stand upon the hill hand in hand
Carving thier names in a tree of the land
The tree slowly dies,
From the wound in it's side
Nothing lasts forever and so it died
Years that pass love grows dimmer
Until one day just a glimmer
One day they take a walk out side
The love they had has finally died

Darkness creeps around the hill
The tree that stands there shall never feel
Blood soaks the ground around his head
Lying there you know he''s dead
Sword by his side, rose on his heart
True loves last words she turns with a start
Dagger in hand crimson shines on the blade
When the suns hot the tree gives him shade
She walks with slow foot steps,
To the edge of the hill
Dropping the knife with the shock of the kill
She falls to the ground tears in her eyes
Throws back her head and screams to the skies
The moon slowly rises to summon the dead
She pulls her shawl close,
And shudders with dread
Her lovers soul rises with a mournful song
She tells her self she has done no wrong
Memories flood her empty heart
Now she knows her next part
Taking the knife she ends her own life
And in the darkness all goes quiet..
