To Conquer and Be Conquered

I’m a strong warrior and a fierce knight
On both of my shoulders, are my swords of might
Throw me daggers, throw me spears
But don’t throw me that look, which can fatally sheer.

With the roars of my courage, I have conquered lands
I have made great nations, bowed before my hands
My swords are lethal and their edges are sharp
But your eyes are deadlier, it penetrates my heart.

With my robust arms and my sturdy feet
I have won every battle, there’s no defeat
The beast with in me, they say it’s ferocious
But I think it’s your beauty, which is more dangerous.

The pungent smell of war, the fragrant desire
The drive to conquer, the yearn to settle
The glory of winning, the humility of longing
To the empires that fall, to your love I rest my soul
