Cynical laughter in my head
planning my future since sixteen
tripping over make believe castles
falling onto plastic swords
for a warrior wields sharpen blades
princess? I grin such absurdities
a fool, they perceived ,as I
light my Marlboro, drinking coffee
sharing pillows good or bad
innocence is overrated
nope, forthcoming matters not
I pass out tieras to daughters
knight's weapon to sons
going to battle
my life experienced, I walked
sometimes I crawled on blood soaked knee
no need to look ahead, knowing whats there
here are my rainbows...given to you instead.
