Nighted

He is assuredly no warrior
Merely a knight dreading the day  
The darkness his companion  
His true comfort when it falls  
  
He walks through unhallowed halls  
Feeling his elders' curse  
A whisper in the family code  
A message he may never hear  
   
He still drags a rusted sword  
Armor splintered on the way  
The darkness chooses to remain  
A fragmented knight is here to stay.
