A figure stands, in steel encased,
Strength, courage, loyalty, in every place,
Focus in his eyes, like a beacon bright,
A guardian of honor, in the dark of night.
But few may know, behind the steel so strong,
A heart that once loved, with a tender song,
Unmet expectations, like scars so deep,
A loner now, in a world that he’ll keep.
The steel that shields, also hides the pain,
Of love that faltered, like summer’s fleeting rain,
Yet still he stands, through trials and strife,
A sentinel of hope, in a world of life.
His heart still beats, with a love so true,
Though guarded now, with a steel anew,
For in its depths, a flame still burns so bright,
Guiding him on, through the darkest night.
