Immortal Knight

Today, I wake up as the light of the sun, touch my skin kindly, giving me some a warm kiss of the morning. I didn't realize that I'm sleep so soundly this night. All I remember, I was back from my long exhausting journey at 20.28, than I'm start take my nap. It was one best sleep I ever had for this past month. I'm feeling so energize today, even that feel still linger a little, but I don't mind it too much. It's like the storm already past me by, and a warm breeze day giving me her nice hug today.

Then I remember, I'm always thinking about my self as a great honorable knight, that made his journey to be a stronger warrior in this vast land, so I can offer my mind and body to a great and beauty princess. That knight always think that the power of man and what his worth of can only be shown when he fight for something what it believe, to protect everything that precious to him. That's why as long as he unable to find that reason to be strong, he would always feel weak.

His long journey was not so easy, he made several princess through his journey. Some are worth and some are not, and every princess that his think was worth his service, was the one who doesn't really need him. So much battle and war he has been through for them, but that all were never really enough for them to see that knight worth. Until someday at some point that knight were tired, he about to giving up, he start to thinking that maybe he really are to weak to be some knight in shinning armor.

So he cursed himself and start lying down his sword, he getting lost in the midst of war within his own mind, until he found himself exhausting in some dessert. He look some oase far in the distance, so he run too it, wash himself clean, feeling the fresh of water raining down his throat. Slowly he gain his self awareness. He took his time, and looking to his own face before the reflecting water.

Slowly the water become calm, and he can see clearly himself naked. He can see all that bruises, all that scar, all that muscle, he can see everything about himself. That made him realize, with all of that bruises and scar yet he still alive. With all the muscle he gain, he can stand strong this day. Yeah, all the experienced of pain, wound, tear, and blood he get until now, was what made he reaching this point, what made he move this far. If some princess unable to acknowledge what kind of knight he really are, doesn't mean he was not worth to be a knight. All that scar and muscle he get was the prove, so he start to wearing back that armor, taking up again his sword. He start walking again to new battleground to find what he need to be found. He swear to himself that it was never his fault neither the princess who rejected his service, so as a knight he will helped anyone in distress who will he meet along his journey to find the princess who worthy of his service.

And I'm always hope that knight will grow even stronger, braver, and more gallantly. Maybe he was bound to walk this way, not to be just some knight who will be gone when they are dead, maybe he really are an Immortal knight who will endlessly trying to find his precious one. Yeah, he was that kind of guys after all, and so do I will not giving up to search for someone who can think of me as a special one. When that time bound to come, I will be her knight in shinning armor, which will endlessly love her reach toward her journey.
