Well, I'm trying to write a classic sort of fairy tale poem but in the form of a story!. It's basically about a rich girl who is set to marry the prince, but who is really in love with a poor peasant boy, she follows her heart and runs away to him and it's gonna end in a kiss!. I know it's long n kinda cheesy but I've only got half way atm!.
Please help me with some lines and words if they need changing, if anyone could write a follow on verse or 2 from where I've reached up to so far or just offer me any advice it would be greatly appreciated, thanks
An angry father, a frightened mother,
A worried sister, a happy brother!.
A nervous town lying in wait,
Awaiting the news of my fate!.
For I am gone, but where and when!?
Their question is 'will it happen again!?'
A soon to be princess vanishing from sight,
While they were enraptured by their dreams in the dead of the night!.
The people are in a state, not knowing who to believe,
Wondering when death next cries out, who it shall receive!.
Because there's no doubt about it, I wouldn't run away,
Death must have snatched me, to my mothers dismay!.
Stabbed, stoned, skewered or shot!?
What was this killers mysterious plot!?
Like the one little lamb not where it should be,
For hours they've been searching, searching for me!.
But they will not find me dead, my dainty heart still beats,
It won't stop now, it must keep going, like the hands of a clock it repeats!.
I know I'm causing them grief, I know I'm causing them sorrow,
But do they know what it's like, to be in constant dread of tomorrow!?
If my mother knows, I've sunk to something so viole,
There would be no point in this, it would not be worthwhile!.
There's two faces to Master Medgold, the charming and the cruel!.
I'm the only one who's seen the cruel, he doesn't trust the rest, to me he calls them fools!.
'The perfect young man!' My mother exclaimed with glee,
But he's so far from perfect, why does she fail to see!?
If I spoke up, they wouldn't believe, the truth about Harry Medgold,
They can't see past his smiling eyes to a heart so icy cold!.
I've fought with myself for months, the decision is now made,
In time they will forget me, my image will slowly fade!.
And now the rain whips my face with slaps so bitter and malign!.
The rain splashes and wipes away any sign of my crying!.
My cloak hides who I am as I scurry along,
I know I'm doing the right thing, so why does it feel so wrong!?
I can't pretend to be happy anymore,
Riches and wealth are not what I adore!.
I take off my ring, it no longer shall be worn!.
The ring signals a bond, but that bond has been torn!.
Two people who marry shall love, two peopl who love shall marry,
He's not the one I love, I cannot marry Harry!.
If I don't obey his rules, he won't take my hand in marriage,
I won't obey him anymore, I've finally found the courage!.
I know it's a little late to leave and I'm sure you will agree,
But away from the town, away from them is where I want to be!.
To marry Harry tomorrow is not my destiny,
Because I want to be out of their world, I want freedom, I want to be free!.
I know the marriage would make my family wealthy,
But they don't seem to see, that it's not about them, it's about me!.
(that's all I've got so far and I'm stuck as to how to move the story onwards)
