True Love’s Kiss

They tell the story of a maiden.
Some say she was as fair as can be.
Some say she was young.

Or died as old as one can be.
They say one day,her soul fell into a deep sleep.
For nights on end,she would weep.

Her heart felt hollow.
The night soon follow.
A fairytale for sure.

But the real question is,when will her soul wake up?
Does she need to wear makeup to feel pretty?
Or does she look just fine?

Her heart was pounding ,feeling on cloud nine.
They say she was in a wealthy family of four.
In her heart was a deep void.

An endless hole.
The legend says,only one thing can wake her up for all.
So she can feel complete,whole.

They say you need to seal the curse and free her.
With a true love’s kiss.
To remind her of what she never got.

And what she would miss.
She slowly grew as she got older.
Her emotions,often kept in a neat folder.

They say not everyone was able to take a peek.
Her past cruel,her tears leak.
When she was little,she hoped to find a prince one day.

That will heal her and maybe sweep her away.
It’s the fantasy of any lonely little girl.
Who used fiction and romance to cope.

She did not notice as easy.
But over the years,a longing develop.
And one day,she met a moon.

It glowed brightly,daily and nightly.
It winked,smiled and said.
Let it out,little girl.

Nobody will judge.
And you’ll get all the chocolate fudge you want.
The moon smiled oh so warmly.

And I smile whenever it’s beside me.
The moon said,I will show you the way home.
And I will give you affection all your own.

The moon soon followed her home and put her to sleep.
His soothing voice,sleeping deep.
As the stars gently hold her.

Her emotions no longer in a folder.
And she slowly grew older.
But she never forgot her moon.

Truly a true love’s kiss.
