“A poem for the rulers of nations. "Heavy lies the head that bears the crown, A weight of power, from dusk to dawn. In regal halls, with scepter and throne, The ruler's heart carries burdens unknown. Heavy lies the head, but it bears the weight, Of destiny's hand, of a kingdom's fate. Through trials and triumphs, they must lead, For the crown they wear is the nation's need. Served with platters of rumours and hate, Still they feed our nations from a selfless plate. Endless gossip and selfish press, Yet they take the punch with no regret. With grace and strength, they rise above, Their duty to cherish, their people to love. In the realm they govern, their hearts resound, For heavy lies the head that wears the crown.”
