Nothing Else To Say

Ma'am, it's time. I have to accompanied you. I can't be late either
and you can't miss the meeting either
we are expected. and the Styx is quiet, without a storm

See, young man, I will stay a little longer.
all my life I waited for my prince to appear. on a white horse
I can't leave right now. I would feel wasted. abandoned. ignored

Ma'am! time does not wait. everyone has a moment of hesitation, but at the end they cooperate
I can not. I have no more tears to impress you. I'm empty, dry,
but I'm not ready yet. I can't give up. I decline. My Prince…

It's a deep night. Nobody's coming. Ma'am, please let me to help you
The horse is old and blind, but even so he feel your insecurity
so I didn't wait in vain. thank you young man
