'Till My Petals Fall
A Hunchback of Notre Dame Poem
I, a flower standing tall
Now wilts within its garden
Because of unrequited love
I'm destined soon to fall
The moment I laid eyes on you,
All my sorrow went away.
Your sparkling eyes and gentle smile
Stayed in my mind all day.
I longed for you to know someday
'Bout these feelings that I felt
Thinking about you with me
Just made my heart melt.
The Feast of Fools had come around
I made my way through the crowd
Every man there was a clown,
But you hadn't changed at all
But then I saw you staring at
A pretty gypsy girl
You smiled as you watched her dance
Her eyes shone like a pearl
I tried my best to find you
And tell you how I felt
But Fate I guess decided it
Just wasn't meant to do
I, a flower standing tall,
Now wilts within its garden
With a sword, it's blade now stained
I let my petals fall
