Happily Ever After

Just.. Ya know.




It’s like in all the fairy tales

They talk about love they’ve lost
Replacements they’ve found
I ask was it true love, or was it lust?
Always in my head, twirling around

My curiosity needs quenched with the fact of what I did wrong
You say I did nothing, your voice like a song
I’m almost positive that it’s really over
I need a good luck charm, a four leaf clover

Your gorgeous green crystals
Gazed right in my eyes
I heard the rain at a slight drizzle
Falling out of the sky

I felt your embrace
Right up against your chest
Looking up into your face
I know you make me my best

I could feel your heart beat
So steadily and sure
My face turned red with heat
Your touch is my cure

There’s nothing in this world
That I thought could tear us apart
But in your arms I was curled
Never closer to your heart

Now why was there tension
Between us now
We need intervention
How us to save us, I don’t know how

Your face turned misty
My eyes felt warm
My head, it felt dizzy
My emotions started to swarm

I didn’t know why
I was so happy now
I thought I was starting to cry
But my eyes wouldn’t allow

You asked me what was wrong
I said I just don’t know how this can end
He said have you thought that this long
I told him the messages he was beginning to send

He looked at me funny
His eyes they were wild
He smiled and said hunny,
You see like a child

It’s by no fault of yours
That I’ve been acting this way
But in the next few hours
There’s something I have to say

My heart skipped a beat
You were scaring me to death
With this amazing feat
You could hear it on my breath

You pulled me in close
And told me everything was okay
I needed to stop worrying
It was going to be a special day

I now regret thinking
That this was actually done
Like our ship was sinking
Like the red glowing sun

The only theory I can create
Was subconscious paranoia
But since our first date
I knew that I’d always love ya

The night drew on
It was awkward at least
But you took me to dinner
We had a small feast

We sat on the terrace
Watching the sun set on the horizon
Through our eyes, communicating in silence
Not needing words for connection

We finished our meal
But something still wasn’t right
we had a deal
Something was going to happen tonight

You took me by the hand
And walked me across the small deck
Over to the lake, our special land
On my cheek, you gave me a peck

Yours eyes on that night
Put the stars to shame
I looked around everything just right
I could feel the mutual internal flame

You pushed me away a little
I didn’t understand
Until you got down on one knee
And took my hand

I finally came to grips
With why you had been acting so odd
I read the words on your lips
All I could do was nod

You wanted us forever
That’s what you told me
Our bond never to be broken
Together for all eternity

The little blue box opened up
Presenting a small silver band
Carrying a diamond on top
You slipped it on my finger
A chill went through my spine
The feeling is today still at linger
That you are really mine

You got up off of your knee
Brushing the dirt from your pants
Pulling yourself into me
Telling me you had approval from my parents

My father approved of him
Since we started in highschool
My mother called him a sin
Because he was a young fool

Now they both accept
Who he will become
Not just a friend
But now he is their son

There’s nothing left I need to write
Until I start a new chapter
My heart is still full of light
And fairy tales really can end
In happily ever after
