Romance Novel

We live in a romance novel, one with misery and dread Where thoughts come to perform in our twisted heads View and suspicion, leaving us dead A vacant shell of what life we once led Lost in the shadows, once alone and so cold Looking for love, weeping for someone to hold Like roses wandering down to the snow Lying like blood on the cobble stones Beneath the darkness of the light moon I lay and hear a howling tune Carried to my ear by the sorrowing wind Listening to it I find I am again I hear a voice so soft and so sweet It carries to me a vision of mi petit My love, my one and only Kissing you through my dreams, we’ll no longer be lonely I sleep my life away in the day So that at night you can come to play And I will be within your arms If you will have me as your girl No longer do I find this story sick And my life I feel is no more a wreck With you besides me in my heart And promising that we’ll never be apart I say today to whisper here We live in a romance novel This time without the tears Of you and me falling free I am yours, and you are all I need
