Ruled By Idyllic Extremes

Her love-life ruled by idyllic extremes
  romantic, passionate kisses on screens
fairy-tale princes on stallions pale-cream

Promises whispered on moonlit nights
  shoreline strolls under stars twinkling lights
two lovers' eyes filled with amorous gleams

Little wonder no beaux could live up to her billing
  any glimmer of hope she ended up killing ~ 'til
she retired to pillow-fed, wistful dreams
