The Lie Which Was Candy


I sit on my chair, and begin to wonder, Clasping my head, which is falling down under. I've always wanted, something divine, But I know without it, I shall be fine... But it seems to me, I'm falling apart, A feeling deep, from within my heart. I know that it is, a certain pain, But with words I know, I shall not explain... I just feel something, you won't understand, Life's too fast, like slipping sand. Every breath, is a precious jewel, If one waste's it, then they're a fool... I feel as though, someone's waiting out there Ready to take me, but where oh where? Where shall I find him? When will it be? I have no clue, I shall have to wait and see. It seems as though, it's my love, With the heart of a lion; wings of a dove. He is so brave, as brave as can be, But when I ask, shall he come to me? I know not when, when he shall arrive, But waiting I am, waiting alive. All I do, is sit at my chair, Releasing my head, combing my hair. They think I'm mad, to even think, That he may come, within a blink. But insane I'm not; I tell thy, I'm true, The problem is most simply you. Don't be sad, don't be offended, I mean no harm, thy not insulted. I just feel a pain, from deep inside, I'll tell you merely, they all lied. They said he would come, my darling prince, And here I am waiting, and here I wince. I flinch at the words, which you hurt me amid, So I climb in my mind, and shut up the lid. So the world to me, is just like a box, But truly I know, there's no lid, nor locks. How dare be it? Such a twisting lie? Life to me is not sweet to thy eye. I hear something, from deep inside of me, What is it I wonder? What could it be? I hear a crack, my heart is now sore, It's my heart that cracked, I can't take it anymore. I cry, I weep, I do all I can try, But nothing works, oh my, oh my... But then I hear, a knock on my cover, But I turn away, and moan 'my lover, my lover' 'But I thought, you were waiting for me, Darling princess, I'm here, don't you see? You have waited, and I see you are the best, My dear beloved, you have passed thy test!' I stop and hear, the most striking poetry, I stop my crying, and peeked out to see. And it was him! I could not explain, I have waited, and now he had healed my pain. Oh goodness me, I leaped out with joy, He pulled me close, and I felt suddenly coy. He looked at me, deeply in my heart, I knew from here, we wouldn't be apart. He lifted me, and together we twirled, Then we stopped, with our heads all whirled. I looked at him and he looked at me, The light of heaven, we could now see. I smiled with joy, he smiled with delight, And we stayed together, even through night. When day grew in, I woke with a start, Then when seeing my love, I felt my heart. Here we were, just loving each other, We would stay put, whatever the weather. Never would we part, we would stay together, Forever friends we were, forever and ever.

I'm just a girl full of emotion, A girl full of sorrow. I sometime's act like, There'll never be a tomorrow. I know I know, I sound so depressed, But in reality I have no truth. People die at all ages, From old and weak, to youth. You may not understand, Of a word that I may say. Well let me tell you this, I won't last another day. You may think I am weak, And much to brittle to fight, Well, yes maybe now, For I have sunk in my artificial night. I have lost many things, But I do not really mind. For I must go trough pain, Because it was a will I signed. Please so would you just, Try to understand me. I just want the truth to spill out, So that I may reach my destiny. I shall ignore the mean and rude, And any feeble words that doubters speak. I will soon reach the end of my days, For it is my dream life that I seek. To you all my friends, And fellow others whom I don't know. I wish to be an inspiration for all, An inspiration so... That all you people realise, That fate is not in our hands! For if you worry not, and pray instead, You shall all soon understand! The Lord wishes, what He wishes, He will do as he may please. So at every opportunity, Do so take the chance and seize. I dream to be, I dream to aspire. For you my people, I want to inspire. Please dear friends, please please watch out for any words that you say and any actions that you do...
