True Love Prevails

Pray Death come not slowly be painless with haste

My heart lies here dying my will soon erased

What victories are there in the wars fought and won

When as soon as ones ended another’s begun

Still I rise to the challenge as the gauntlets re-thrown

Giving thanks to the Gods for the mercy they’ve shown

Driven by passion still blind in my youth

Believing in dreams as if they were proof

I’m seeking my true love, a white knight indeed

With conscience to guide him and courage to lead

I’ll search till I find him or go to my grave

Without him I suffer an empty hearts slave

Let Death be forewarned lest the Gods be unkind

Take my life if you choose but my heart stays behind

Only Heaven can say where loves destiny lies

If my fate is to find him my spirit will rise

No obstacle stands that will cause me to fail

When a heart seeks true love it will always prevail

Anne Drake
