Caught by the moment
In a web of confusion and despair...
The woman fell asleep
When her lover failed to arrive...
And share an intimante moment
Of dreams, fantasy and romance...
As she slept...
She had a dream...
A dream
That her lover was a Dragon
Whom once was a Prince...
Who kissed her sweet lips as she slept!
Startled at the dream of such a love.
The woman awoke
For the dream seemed real.
She felt not only the kiss
But the fiery dragon's fire upon her lips.
As she opened her eyes to see.
There stood not the Dragon...
But a handsome Prince.
She couldnt believe this were real
Till she touched him upon the cheek...
Then she asked...
Was that kiss real?
I thought I had kissed a Dragon.
The Prince responed...
You did kiss a Dragon
And that was me.
But your sweet lips broke my curse...
And now I am your Prince...
Until you came into my life,
The curse was to always remain a Dragon
It was not only your beauty..
but your sweet kiss of nectar...
That make my heart come alive
And change my appearance...
As if your kiss was Magical...
And I was the Prince
You were really waiting for...

Poetically condensed old theme.
A very romantic tale of wish fulfillment and of a dream kiss awakening disguised desire and passion. These emotions do distort the senses and give everything a fairy tale ambiance. Nice allusion.
