Treasures (Poetry Book Number Two)

A Short Tale

This is about a young boy's tale
To conquer life as what it is
His mother tells him not to fail
But all he wanted was his first love's kiss

His mother scolds him every night
Shoves his test in his face
His anger builds, but too weak to fight
He is stuck in his dungeon palace

She saw him cry behind a tree
His wounds and bruises stung so bad
She felt sorry, she fell on her knee
Did everything to make him glad

The boy liked his effort that day
He said he has to see her again
And so from his mother he would run away
Just to see her and hold her hand

Everytime they see each other
His courage somehow grow and grow
His coward days are now over
It's time to end the torture and sorrow

Then, one night he stood up to his mom
She cried in tears to what she had done
He thanked the girl for the brand new kingdom
As he wished, they kissed, now didn't run.

This ends the tale of a this short story
They now lived happy and glad together
A girl made him brave as he should be
Now I believe in Happy Ever After
