My Armor's Now not Tarnished

A Poem by DONALD EISSLER

A KNIGHT SHINES HIS ARMOR

My Armor's Now not Tarnished

It’s early Sunday morning.
The sky is crimson red.
I wander back to last night

To the words I said.
.
We only met through words,

A kiss we did never share.
Still we seemed to fall in love,

Through the cyber air.
.
We both had obligations,
You though more then me

A relaltion filled with obstacles
Solving them would be the key.
.
Was this just a fairy tale
Destined to come true?

As one written in a child’s book
As endings often do?
.
It took six months I think
Maybe one month more,
Finaly got the courage up
To see what was in store.
.
Worried to my very soul
Of what I was to find.
For unlike verbal pictures,
Sometimes reality is unkind.
.
But when I finally saw you,
There was a twinkle in your eye.
No, this was not a fairy tale,
We did not live a lie.
.
Aura of our first kiss

Its excitement we did share

Thoughts ran through my mind,

It's more than a cyber love affair.
.
It was only just last night,
When I whispered in your ear,
Just how much I love you,
But done with so much fear.
.

You turned and took my hand

Squeezed it oh so tight

Said " My tarnished one I love you too
You will always be my Knight"

My armor's now not Tarnished

Ever since that special night

For I found my love in cyber-space

Now my armor's shining bright !!
