The past hold ghosts a thousand deep
That through the night wake the princess from her sleep.
Morning comes but cannot bring relief
For the stone house’s walls cannot yet be breached
Her heart knows it’s true desire
It remains contained, her mind on fire
In her past she has left true love before
A second chance stands there, can she step through the door
What sunshine he sees from behind her eyes
The princess does not believe can last
Trusting, leaping, faith in love
All emotions, all risks, keeping them apart
Once more together, time stands still
Decisions made, remain unreal.
The lovers kiss is from fair Verona’s pages,
It brings back emotion lost to the ages
He tells the princess of her virtues
Her heart, her soul, her peerless beauty.
She hears the words, and from him she rises,
Her body yielding, her walls are falling
The star crossed princess knows her lover’s heart
Her own protected, beats for him
Reason can keep them from resting love she sees,
But it can be a perfect union, a life, a waking dream
