I wake
up with a jolt and brush my teeth,
Heat
some water and wash away my sleep.
While
brushing my hair I wonder whether to curl,
A quick
glance at the watch and I know my plans won’t unfurl.
So I
doll up in a dress and slip into my heels,
My shoes
give me power, so amazing is how it feels.
I put on
some mascara and paint my lips,
And
twirl in front of a giant mirror like smoky wisps.
With a
tote on my arm and bounce in my feet,
I pluck
myself off and step out on the street.
The sun
smiles at me and the birds start to sing,
The
flowers dance merrily and trees stand like a king.
I wave
them a hello and start to skim,
Maybe
today is the day when I meet HIM.
He’s the
one, who visits me in my dream,
A
handsome knight and eyes full of gleam.
I giggle
and step inside the place where I work,
Reading
stories for a job has some of its perks.
Today my
hero has eyes like ocean blue,
I sigh
and wonder when I will meet YOU.
I jerk
out of my notion and look at the sky,
In my
fairy tale musings, the day has passed by.
With a
silly shake of head, I bounce across the street,
I
stumble but HE holds me and that’s how our eyes meet.
As deep
as the ocean, as blue as the sky,
He’s a
handsome hunk, Oh, dear my!
A smile
touches my lips and I can’t help but swoon,
Oh, I
met my Prince Charming; I’m so over the moon.
Butterflies
flutter around me but I don’t even blink,
Everything
shines brighter, everything looks pink!
He leans
a little closer, maybe to give me my true love’s kiss,
So I
hold my breath, close my eyes and wait for the bliss.
Seconds,
minutes, hours go by,
I bite
my lip and open one eye.
What I
see makes me moan,
I huff,
I scowl, I slap myself and groan.
With a
heavy heart, I jump out of my bed,
My hero
wasn’t real; he was just in my head!
I open
the window and welcome the evening breeze,
I long
for the day when HE will just stop to tease.
Maybe
not today, but I will meet him one day,
With
that thought, I hope my destiny will find another way.
I smile
when I see pastels blooming in the skies above,
And
suddenly I realize I spent another day, dreaming of Pink Love!
