I closed my eyes
And dream
Of a time of Lords and Ladies
Knights that fraught for honor

In my dream I see
A castle upon the hill
Surrounded by peril
Fire-breathing dragon

Within is a Princess
Beautiful of fire, lock, and emerald orb

…Trapped…

Until one day, on the back
Of a great white steed
Her Prince Charming comes
To save her

The clash of metal
Scream of defeat

In my dream I see
The Price saves his Princess
Climbing the tower
To take her into his arms
Lavish kisses
Breathtaking soul to keep

All her life she waited
For this day
Her savior
Her love
Her Prince

In my dream I see
Them riding off into the sunset
Living happily ever after

The backdrop falls…

And I awaken
Shivering with cold
Soaked with tears
A sigh to turn away my head
Closing my eyes again

So…

In my dream I see
My fairytale
