The Lady In Love With Roy by Mary -BrytEyz- Ball

The maiden fair, her virtue safe
Until she met a certain lad
The little lady fell in love
And then she loved with all she had

Though others had tried many times
Easy work 'twas for this boy
To loosen up her vestal ties
And transform her into his toy

She loved him in the morning
She loved him through the night
She loved him still in mourning
Made love though 'twasn't right

He played his cards so carefully
as he enjoyed this royal game
She dodged the guards so bare-fully
then quickly to her love she came

Just a mere young peasant boy
Still the King he would betray
The Princess of the kingdom
was not to give her heart away

Yes, once he'd vowed allegiance
to Queen and country to death
Little had he known how fun
it was to waste that breath

For many days he'd worn that suit
of mail he'd made from simple stuff
But now his nights he lay without
Beside the Princess in the buff

She had her servant make a sword
To trade for the boy's worn out stick
Jewels and gems galore it had
The sheath was sturdy and thick

For awhile he was enamored
and star struck with this prize
But soon the game was over
And the stars fell from his eyes

Though a Princess she was indeed
He missed the fame back home
When he used to ride the drawbridge
And was adored by all he'd known

The secrecy was not conducive
to the life he'd lived before
When he was free to be with
whichever pawn he would explore

So one night he rode the stallion
He'd long since traded for the burro
To return to that little village
Through the wood and over furrow

Back to his home outside of Rome
Where by all he had been adored
His heart again full of passion
his hand now held a royal sword

The Princess cried a river for
The love of that peasant boy
In her bed she shivered and died
Last words: "I love you Roy!"
