She's a dreamer, she's a fool

She said she'd be up so high
So high up in the stars
She said she'd touch the sky, but they said...
She's a dreamer, she's a fool
She didn't fight back, didn't say a word
Resolved that one day she'd show the world
No one could deny no one could refute
She was a dreamer, but never a fool
Time passed by, faces wrinkled, backs stooped
Only thing still unwithered was her dream
That she would fly high
High up in the sky
Zooming past the clouds into realms unkown
But they said
She'll always be a dreamer always a fool
Suddenly that night lightning struck
Bombs were heard and missiles flew
Battle was raging and then came the call
The call to serve the country, to protect, to shawl
Whilst men were inventing schemes
Schemes and plans to slip out of duty
She jumped at the chance stepped up to the fore
Stood upright and took a vow
A vow to serve, to protect
To protect till she could no more
Up into the airplane she clambered
Unsteady and unsure
Contemptuous eyes boring into her
A lone woman in a man's world
There she sat in the pivotal chair
And took off oh so gloriously
She flew and she flew and she flew
Flew past the clouds up into the sky
High up till you could catch sight of her no more
Battling it out bringing her foes down to their knees
Stopping not for a minute, not for a second
So engrossed she was so dutiful so passionate
Did not notice way inside the enemy camp she flew
Beating them at their own game she forged ahead
Ahead until she could forge no longer
Attacked she was from three directions
Bombs flew at her and at that moment she knew
Knew this was the end this was glory
Achieved she had all she ever wanted to
Up in smoke as her airplane fumed she thought to herself
"I was a dreamer, but they were the fools".

Yours Truly...

I remember the night about a year ago
I was waiting for the night since evermore

You were wearing black I was wearing white
It was perfect it was magic it was sheer delight
We walked hand in hand slowly towards the green mountain
I was eager and earnest, and so were you
Burning me up inside it was passion pure
The seconds ticked by heartbeats grew faster
Every minute I could feel myself breathing harder
The moment still I can see frozen in time
How I’d longed to be here with you by my side
On the hilltop we were I was lost in your eyes
In your eyes I was lost, gave them one last look
Knew I’d regret forever if I let this chance slip by
Held you in my arms felt my energy replenished
All my strength I used pushed you down the cliff
Your eyes filled with shock with despair and distrust
Filled me with a glow I just can’t describe
I looked down at you hurtling down the hill
I’d planned so long how to go for the kill
Miraculously it started to rain
Washed off me all the sadness all the pain
I felt so free my heart was ecstasy filled
Now that’s what I call “Revenge – Served Chilled”!!
