A poem

I gave a man my heart
To wear it on his shield
He wore it strong and proud
On Lovedeath battlefield.

I gave a man my love
To wrap it round his sword
A shiny, burning light
That comes from far beyond.

I gave a man my word
To wait for his return
With love wrapped round his sword
With heart on his shield worn.

I prayed for him come back
Until my knees went sore
I prayed for him come safe
I saw of him no more.
