Kingly Requisite

Editorial words scamper across this page as I try to explain myself.
She flowed with golden hair,
And eyes like sapphires gleamed in the summer air.
She led me through the night and preached that everything Would be alright.

And as I followed her hand in hand,
She led me into a castle, a palace.
She said ,"It's all for you."
I said," It's a palace of diamonds. A palace of jewels. A palace of rubies. A palace for fools.
It's a kingdom with everything, but yet it lacks everything.
It possesses only material things.
It is missing one key thing.
And without love a kingdom cannot be."

Then I asked her," Do you love me?"
And she replied, "No."
So now I have no kingdom,
But yet a palace of diamonds,
A palace of jewels,
A palace of rubies,
A palace for fools.
