Romeo and Juliet
I was discouraged, alone in that dale
For life to me was no fairy tale!
My entire childhood I’d been pretending
Of some story with a happy ending
All of that time I’d been so naïve
It was nothing more than make-believe!
But how would I know, thanks to you alone
Magical feelings would prove me wrong?
A miserable life lost its course
When a charming prince appeared on a horse,
Rescued me from worldly strife
I was Cinderella that day of my life
For decades I had been sleeping
Years had I been weeping
Dozing away during harmonious bliss
But, darling, you saved me with a tender kiss
And you took me away as your soon-to-be wife
I was Sleeping Beauty that day of my life
These days are overflowing with laughter
I seem to believe in those 'happily ever afters'
For my Romeo is all I shall ever need
He’s the only book I wish to read
My happiness forever is lovely and fife
I am Juliet everyday of my life
