Rescue the Maiden(RC)

In shadows dark and dungeons deep,
The darkness lulls your soul to sleep,
Upon the bed of suffering,
You lie down and in anguish weep,

The sword to slay the dragon lays,
In cold dead hand decayed by age,
Within’ the tower beyond castle walls,
Your tears run down your beauty falls…

The rider comes with urgent haste,
To slay the dragon, and its fire taste,
With shield on arm and sword in hand,
Of dragons, he swears, to rid the land,

Within’ the tower the maiden waits,
To see her hero ride through the gates,
But within’ the darkness the shadow sleeps,
Keeping watch over the castle it keeps,

Upon the back of his steed he rides,
A hero born to pierce dragon hide,
To free the maiden of her captive tower,
And smother her in loves sweet shower,

The dragon wakes to the rider at the gates,
And it swears his doom awaits’,
But brave hero holds his ground,
Neither his strength nor will would shake,

The maiden watches as battle unfolds,
The warriors ground, still he holds,
And evil dragon falls to hero’s blade,
Now beautiful maiden finally is saved,

So true, is the love they now share,
Intertwined are their hearts so fair,
After so many warriors that had come and died there,
A hero came to rescue maiden fair.

Classic story in my own words...what do you think?

Pretty good, although the rhythm of the poem was off in a few parts, so that kinda distracted me. But good, overall.

In shadows dark and dungeons deep,
The darkness lulls your soul to sleep,
Upon the bed of suffering,
You lie and in anguish weep,

This was my favorite stanza of them all...very dark and brooding. I'd recommend change the last line to "You lie down and in anguish weep.", to match the syllables and everything, and make its rhythm smoother.
