The main gatehouse of Harlech Castle. The step...
What should I do?

When your words are law,

and you lie to me,

whilst living a fantasy.

 

I love to hear,

your romanticised tales,

your charisma and charm,

full of dangers that harm.

 

You’re rarely here –

gone for days at a time,

but I’m eagerly hoping

that you’ll come home soon.

 

So I wait in this castle,

alone and afraid;

the hunger it rages,

it goes on for days.

 

You call me your Princess,

and you are the King.

Your court it protects you –

you do what you want to.

 

You banished the Queen

in such a cruel way,

with lies and with hatred,

she’s forbidden to see me.

 

You call me names,

and you made me ashamed.

You’re meant to protect,

not hurt and neglect.

 

I am but a child.

I am only twelve.

Your Princess, your daughter,

why would you hurt me?

 

Your kingdom was cruel,

and your realm it was strong;

but the day that you died,

it fell with your lies.

Fantasise

and cast your eyes

over the mysteries

of your life’s long dreams

 

Philosophise

see through the lies

that tie you down

and cause you pain

 

Hypnotise

those who criticise

show them the way

that you now pave

 

Apologise

to those by your side

for our foolish ways

that caused them pain

 

Romanticise

look through rose eyes

for one true love

who will hole you close
