Rapunzel’s Scissors
Rapunzel , Rapunzel !
Let down your hair !
You’re far too uptight -
and it just isn’t fair
to deny me
the tiniest vestige of hope
for lacking the foresight
to carry a rope.
Rapunzel, Rapunzel!
Cometh the hour –
for you to explain
why you built this damn tower.
Your knights dash themselves
on invisible bricks –
repelled by a spell
and your sorceress tricks.
Rapunzel, don’t leave me,
dismissed as a charmer.
Abandoned –
Your knight in rusting armour.
The prison that holds you
Is of your own making.
The keys to release you
Are yours for the taking !
Rapunzel , Rapunzel!
Stop cutting your hair!
Let it grow till it reaches the ground
And I swear -
I’ll be waiting
to climb up and answer your prayers.
Give me hope!
At least - throw me the scissors !
