Where Is Thy Sting

Exquisite Queen, conclusion to my quest,
I burn bright now that I have you in sight.
Too long I've lazed about the plain at rest,
I'll dare desire, let's love by divine right.
No more do I cheat the bite of love's reign
I have come prepared for our promised rain,
Let's shake off all the rust and end the pain,
For I am your lion, see my mane,
Though, still, I am a King in cheap clothing,
While you're so many curves for which I've sighed,
Let's run, let's fly passed all fearful loathing,
You leave your hive, honey, I'll leave my pride.
  Magnificent woman, my monarch true,
  Where is thy sting? I've longed so long for you.
