CAMELOT FANTASIES

A tear slipped
From the corner of my eye
As I watched the bride go by
She looked breathtakingly beautiful
With stars and love in her eyes
For the man she now can call husband
Priest just congratulated them
Proffered them heartwarming advice
Beware of internet intrusions
Fake news delusions

In my heart, he showered them
With loving advice
Walking up the aisle as man and wife
She stumbled
Not used to wearing a full length
Wedding dress
After all this is her first wedding
She gasped as she stumbled
Holding onto the man she loved
Her eyes darted quickly
To her beloved

He walked beside her
Stoicism written all over his face
No notice of his beautiful brides discomfort
Even if her gait seemed out of place

Observing him
He seemed withdrawn
Like checking off a list
This job is done

A tear slipped from my eye
For she doesn’t know it yet
Her love for him is real
For him it’s a lie
