Stolen Valentine

I received the invitation
But there was no address
I knew it was a castle
Affording nothing less
Even the road started to rhyme like this
Until I came to the massive gate
Where they weighed and pummeled me
Made me sleep on the floor in the hall
But I couldn't rest roaming
From room to room one night
Until I came upon the bride
Sleeping naked in her bed
Love buried in human light
Body that no mortal made
