The Big Bad Wolf vs Three Little Pigs vs Goldilocks vs Cindarella in metaphorical verse. |
Love and I have seen our fair share of life's little ups and downs When I was young it certainly was a lot easier than it is now And it's not because of my failing mind or slowly ageing body It's more about past lovers leaving me oh so sore and sorry They say when you fall off your bike to get right back on again I say only after enough time has passed to allow yourself to mend A broken heart takes a very long time before it might be fixed And each time that it happens...going from straw to sticks to bricks A sturdy house should be able to withstand the worst of emotional storms If it's made from solid materials and its foundation is very strong So now the walls around my heart are almost impossible to pass I would prefer it to be that way, instead of them being made of glass Because glass is transparent, it won't hide away my pain I guess that might be something good...and could be for my own gain But it's brittle and it's cold and so delicate it easily shatters And a broken heart needs more than that to protect it from emotional matters The time has come to change my ways...put an end to dragging my feet Because that won't really cut it if there's a girl I happened to meet If she's warm and she's soft and doesn't ever huff and puff And understands the things I do, then that will be enough I laugh as my impenetrable walls all come tumbling down My reflection shows a smiling face....seems I've lost that eternal frown No big eyes or sharp teeth....not a girl who wears wolf's clothing A fairy tale with a happy end...not one of fear and loathing |
