Love Letter From A Knight's Tale

(OK. I DID edit one line. It was killin' me, as was.)

My Dearest Jocelyn:

It is strange to think, I have not seen you in a month.

I have seen the new moon, but not you.

I have seen sunsets and sunrises, but nothing of your beautiful face.

The pieces of my broken heart can pass through the eye of a needle.

I miss you like the sun misses the flower,

like the sun misses the flower in the depths of winter.

Instead of beauty to direct its light to,

the heart hardens like the frozen world where your absence has sent me.

I next compete in Paris. I'll find it empty and cold if you're not there.

Hope guides me. It gets me through the day and especially the night.

The hope that after you leave my sight it will not be the last time I look upon you.

With all the love that I possess...I remain yours...

The knight of your heart,

William
 
The producer of A Knight's Tale supposedly found this poem on someone's blog. He had written it to his girlfriend. The producer then contacted the creator of the poem and asked for permission to use it in the movie. They added three lines: " My dearest Jocelyn," "I next compete in Paris," and  I'll find it empty and cold if you're not there. William." [source ?]
