Paradise

Hoping to be crowned
With royalty
Our wishes drowned
By disloyalty
Wanting to live
In paradise
Having to give
Into demise
Secretly crossing our fingers
That good times will last
The blissful memories linger
Yet fade away fast
At times life can be
A living hell
But as you may see
It can turn out well
Take a breath
Just take your time
Step by step
Things will turn out fine
