Intoxyc8me's blog: "Love's Broken Timepiece"

The Midnight Chime by LateNiteFantasy© Prince charming no more!!! My sweet Cinderella has found a new fella. I'm charming no more she calls me a bore. My castle is worn, tattered and torn. Much like our love which came from above. I want to leave but my steed has gone lame. This miserable outsider my troubles I blame. My loyal councilors have been replaced by jesters and fools. Who don't give advice but quote only rules. As she packs up her gowns. The clock on the wall reads 11:59 . When midnight comes she will stop on a dime. For it all will be final. The marriage said and done. She got a new love and I'm not the one. Long blond hair and shinning blue eyes. Tarnished by hatred, deceit, and lies. My crown is bent There's dust on my Cape My heart is a prison from which there is no escape. My throne has been replaced with a stool in a cell. This fairy tell has turned into a nightmare from hell. My lands divided and fortunes are nil. I'd give all my kingdom if her heart I could steal. The slippers were shattered in a million tiny shards. Along with our love. It was dealt in the cards. Remembering times running through my mind. Thoughts of past love, joy and passion. But in her eyes I've fallen from fashion. She has a pardon to do what she wants. The new prince she'll dangle and taunt. I'm a prince no more the lawyers keep score. My tender heart suffers constant abuses. I profess my love but she only refuses. A fairy godmother is what I need most of all. As the clock rings midnight I whimper and bawl. There chariot is packed so full I only get glimpses. Oh how I will miss those little prince and princesses there going away to a far away land Ill be left here alone with the these two gold bands. My granite statue is gone replaced by one tiny stone. Awaiting a date that as of yet is unknown. I'm left here all alone to face the rapture. Where I will remain happily never after. digging up the past is no fun.. also written in 1976

Until The End Of Time by LateNiteFantsy© We stood there in front of family and friends professing our love to one another. Until the end of time. God smiled down from above. Flowers in bloom. Laughter fills the air. Flashbulbs catch every moment. i scurry away with my bride eager to claim my prize Reality check time. Bills come, a house, cars, then kids. Every waking minute spent making money. Less time for my lover and more time for everything else. Needing her so badly. Unable to tell her how I truly feel. Passion is fading. One day it will be our time. Time to say I love you and show her. One night wrapped in each others embrace. Tell the world to go away leave us alone family and friends have turned against us. Everyone wants us apart as the angels watch in disbelief. On again off again, to and fro. I love you! I hate you! now someone must go. So long ago it seems standing there saying I do until the end of time. Now we stand in court. Surrounded by strangers. Tempers in bloom. This is not what I had in mind when I said. Until the end of time. written for my 1st wife in 1976

Loves Tragic Nightmare by LateNiteFantasy© The airs grown viscid It's becoming arduous to breathe Erratic beating of my aching heart Pain has slowly taken over me You were all I ever wished for All my hopes and dreams Then one day I realized Nothing is ever truly as it seems The hands on the clock have stopped In the middle of loves tragic nightmare Lying here helpless Unable to wake from this bad dream
