Last Nights Fairytale



Your lips, your touch, butter and silk,
Your eyes, your thighs, toffee and milk,

Eternal bliss, forever and a day,
At dusk you offered your life away,

But the Devil had you in his jaws,
under scattered fragments of the disco ball,

Fairytales swam thick in my head,
Happy-Ever-Afters, sleeping beauty's bed,

Now honey sticks between the sheets,
and you left before the sun gave greet,

You softly crept towards the door,
sweet-nothings lay crumpled on the floor,

And when I rose, from my slumber,
I found no note, no telephone number,

So beneath the stars of last night’s sky,
'Prince Charming' didn’t even say goodbye.
