My Prince

A single rose

In the palm of a young girl's hand

A single tear running down her face

Thinking of her prince

She brings out her hand and looks at a ring

She falls back on her bed

Tears falling onto her pillow

Thinking of her prince

Peels petals from her pale pink rose

Throwing them at a sleeping mouse in the corner

Thinking of her prince

Glances out the window

Looking at her rose bride, watering her flowers

She hears in the distance

A faint piano coming from a tower

She wipes her tears

And smells the remaining petals

She walks out of the room

Thinking of her prince
