Sonnets

Dreams are the runaway place in ones mind

They run amok with imagination
In your head you have power to rewind
Through memories with bright animation

My sweetest dreams are those that bring forth joy
Not those that hold reality's despair
I wish not for hopes that seek to destroy
The truth in this life bears fear to impair

The hideaway you have is blessedly
It is not what you should strive for daily
Admire your friends, love your family
Live everyday fully and greatly

My hope, friend, is that you do not feel pain
Nor do you ever take you life in vain.

With heavy heart I bring these words to you
The lines in which my feelings do preside
I am but a princess needing rescue
My prince is who I need to be beside

High up in my tower I feel so lost
No one more lonesome than the fair princess
Not one could know the pain that I have caused
Spending days alone in my loneliness

Alas, my prince does not return the grief
His heart has strayed to love another miss
But my own heart is still in disbelief
I've nothing left to do but reminisce

My only love could never know such pain
This lonesome heart can no longer contain
