(Or Life Isn't Always Fair)
Oh you Casanova..
devilish soothsayer who oozes prophetic poetic words
modern day knight-in-shinning-armor
What are you doing outside my window?
Slaying imaginary dragons?
I’ve always been one for happily-ever-afters
and magical fairytales.
I sat wide-eyed in my seat when Romeo kissed Juliet
and I can’t help but wonder now,
is that how you would kiss me?
Warm hands a breathy sigh...
I’ve perfected the knack
for falling in love with boys I can never have...
Until I dream.
Since rules were never invented,
I can love you from a distance through these panes of glass
and still rule my empire in a perpetual state of faked ignorant bliss.
This isn’t the first time I’ve hidden my emotions, thoughts, and feelings
behind a beautifully painted mask of lies.
What are you waiting for?
I’ve given you my blessing
and approved her hand for marriage
so
take your grace, false ambition, sarcastic banter
and your pretty little whore…
Mount that gallant steed and ride
ride
ride
To a place where the horizon meets the stars,
and you know you can't turn back to yesterday.
Tears of regret are better left in the past. |
