Bearing the standard and the scars
I’m strong when you are weak,
brave when you are meek,
bold when you are shy,
and hold you when you cry.
I am my lady’s champion,
her lover, and companion.
You’ll find no other quite like me -
an epitome of gallantry.
But service comes with a steep cost
and the marks of what he’s lost
criss-cross underneath his mail,
marking all the times he failed.
And few will know how much he grieves
for being not as strong as she believes.
