" I DATED A QUEEN..."

I followed an Angel, up one step
Into a beautiful carriage
The footman, removed the step
And then tucked us, into velvet
My heart began to race, for I was afraid
Of what I might say
I could not even attempt
To be myself,
So I decided to listen with unbridled depth
(at which point, I laughed to myself)
I had not even met, ANYONE
Who had spoken with royalty
It felt like a dream-world
Where everything, seemed brighter
And the steeds that drew us into the night
Seemed taller, stronger, and probably once before
Ridden by a knight,
So I tried desperately, to pull my crazy pulse
Back together...
As we approached the palace, I looked up at the sky
It was all so overwhelming, I felt I might cry
Then, I caught a smile, from her perfect profile
It was right then, that I finally realized
That my Queen, was really
The night sky....
