Drowning in the weald
Without a sword or shield
She was lost to the deep
Twilight had put her to sleep

But he somehow found her there
So full of sorrow and despair
And he gave her what he could
Although he was no Robin Hood

She applauded him for trying his best
This mission being his most important test
Yet both realized there had to be another way
Or they’d both be lost to the vast array

So a final plan was set into motion
Filled with dedication, love, and emotion
And determination eventually got them there
Saving them both from the path to nowhere

All quondam had brung

And time insisted
Its lessons be learned
Yet immature neophytes
Were unconcerned

Little did he even know
The jig was more for show

Based on a well-known fact

Couldn’t see the light in the park
And the walk seemed bleak
After losing his ability to speak

She put him to shame
With her hypnotic fame
He cast insults
While she hurled blame
One final blow
Finished their toxic game
Sending her back
To whence she came
