Proms, Magical???
Proms, Magical???
Are you serious
Like the whole Cinderella-thing
Complete with a fairy godmother
Making Men out of mice
And, turning a pumpkin into a coach
Or, the idea that We could be paired
With that One perfect person
After going Our whole adolescent life
Searching for the true meaning of LOVE
Only to suddenly, be hit with it
Upon the wave of a Magic wand
Causing Us, to be, smack-dab, in the middle
Of things-LIFE!!!
Although, the catch is to make Something happen
Before the hour glass empties
But, as We're racing against TIME
Do we find it, catching up to US
Like the ball, at the stroke of Midnight
On New Year's Eve, at Time Square
Forcing the Novelty to wear off and the whole concept
Of Our being on top of the World to fade
Taking Us, right back, to where We started-REALITY!!!
