She patiently waits watching intently
At the passing of guards out her window
Eyes scanning the crowd of mournful soldiers
Finally at last they land on him
Heart pounding and head silently racing
She is there helplessly sitting by
Abrupt and bold in all her royalty she stands
And proceeds to move to her mirror
She is courageous and kind as reflected in her eyes
Yet she longs to change certain rules
Pushing thoughts aside she muffles her cries
As she plasters her bravest smile
Placing the crown on top of her head
She waits for a guard that is not him
The taps of their shoes echo through
An excessively long and extravagant hallway
Approaching the grand doors she hesitates
Sorrow fills her heart as a faint breeze filters in
Unlike today outside should be happy and good
But she walks each step tearing her apart
As she approaches she feels as if the weight of tons
Has just settled on her shoulders
She treads over to him meeting his glistening eyes
Her mind blank and the world is silent
Repeating the words that must be recited
She pauses and requests one hopeful wish
That a final kiss be pressed upon her lips
