She waited for her white horse prince,

He would sweep off her feet, she would convince.

she sat in her gown and her Cinderella slippers

Shaping her nails with pink nail clippers

Weaving through her silky blonde tresses

She had gone through a closet of dresses.




He did come, riding a black stallion,

His chest gleamed with a gold medallion

It was easy to pretend to fall for him

Cause after all, without love, life was dim

He flattered her with his charming compliments

She permitted him to trifle with her vents.


He jumped on his horse and rode away

She waited by the door until she started to sway

He had gone but left his essence

She was scared, lost all sense

They told her she had been used

She bore a child that society refused


She hated and loved the face before her

The child cried as if lamenting loss of a father

She pulled the little thing to her bosom

The darkness of her past wont hinder this blossom

People muttered and whispered of the scandal

She kept her 'hope' safe from the shadow, with a candle .
