For Prince Nicholas, Piece Two

Sadness, overwhelming, to come to grips
with such an unpleasant reality
such as this.

To realize, my prince, I was not
your first wish, albeit your first kiss.

I should be sadder, I admit, but it's no surprise
to me, I am not the first to gaze lovingly into
your olive green eyes.
