Happily Ever After

Happily Ever After

Pale skin, bright eyes, hair as dark as night
she stands in her dress
and feels so beautiful
like any real princess should do
she fits every bodies expectations
her smile is remembered by everyone
she was promised her fairytale, so she lives it.
but something happens, her eyes loose their twinkle
and she grows out her dress
the world around her moves on
and everybody leaves

her skin stays pale, she remains known her smile
but she misses her dress
she was promised a fairytale, so thats what she lives
but no knight in shining Armour comes to save her
locked in her tower
shes left waiting
in utter ignorance to the reality of her fairytale
smiling at her childhood satin dress
holding onto her nirvana
at all costs.
