​Dysfunctionally Royal

Here in the sun, in this intense heat, We have a small life, nothing seems too neat, No one knows, no one can see, How beautiful it is, our little family.

From the beginning, so quick and discrete, Turned into reality, nothing could defeat. The ups and the downs, the highs and the lows, Like the mountains tops, and the valleys below.

My prince! At last, he is finally here. Through the long journey, it made me appear. The road was long, rough at times, Now relief has engulfed me, no more climbs.

On horseback he approaches, walking up slow, How grand could this get, what an elegant fellow Charming, handsome, witty and keen, Everything I’ve ever wanted, all in between.

We shall one day ride together, away from it all. For now I will help, while you have a ball. Coronation comes quick, once the rest have left, My prince becomes king, a characteristic theft.

Though we never thought this would come about My one and only king, in my arms, I could shout. He is here, with me, so close, so sweet, I am nothing but a consort, at your feet.

Currently I am here, and currently you are there, Together we will become one, no time to despair. The kingdom must go on, reparations at best, To build a life, an empire, together, the conquest.

I love you much, I love you so, Let’s not fight, this plan is a go. Building structure to our life, So the empire will grow. We are forever kings, I hope you know
