a Knight caught up
in a game.
ended up taking
the blame.
found himself
in a
dungeon of shame.
he returned
home to
his lady to
find
she was blind
to his heart
she no longer
wore his colors.
with no badge
of honor she
wanted free.
he set out on his
own.
a rusty suit of honor
is all he owned,
as he walked his way
to find a place
to stay.
in time
a new maiden
came his way.
his first thought,
she waits on a knight
in tarnished armor,
getting weak at the seams,
she waits a knight with
blemished honor.
is it me?
through time
and poetry,
that is how a
rustynite
came to be.

I Loved This!!!!!!!!!!!!
Could this be the story if your fall from glory so to speak and then the rise back into your dignity only to find the one you love no longer loving you so along came another to capture your heart. A love sent to you from God one that would last the test of time this time. Onewho cares not about your past but the man you have become. So I see you not a a rusty knight, but a knight charging in on a white horse ready to do the honorable works of his Lord Jesus Christ. Sorry to be so long, this was an amazing piece, one of the best that I have read of yours!!!Thanks fo sharing!!!~~Toni~~
