A Young Knights' Honor

His oath bounds him to his lawful ways.
His sword brings blood and pain in war filled days.
His word is his honor, and his honor is his life
But if his honor failed him it would be like the cut of a jagged edged knife.

The rich kill to maintain their wealth,
While the poor die to bring money for their children's health.
The young knight helps the needy with all his might
But he fails to eliminate the wrong that was once a right.
His word is his honor, and his honor his life,
But if his honor failed him, it would be like the cut of a jagged edged knife.

He holds his head up high,
You will never see a hint of fear in his eye.
He never shares his feelings with anyone other than his fellow knights,
for they are the only ones who understand his emotions and those foul sights.
His word is his honor, and his honor is his life,
But if his honor failed him, it would be like the cut of a jagged edged knife.

He's cold and stern on the outside,
But grieving and crying for the suffering on the inside.
He lives to uphold the law, and help and protect all who are in need,
But who will help this poor soul when he cannot take heed?

His oath bounds him to his lawful ways.
His sword brings blood and pain in war filled days.
His word is his honor, and his honor is his life,
But if his honor failed him it would be like the cut of a jagged edged knife.
