Fairy Tale

..Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time

In a mind faraway

She was a princess

And like all princesses, she had longed for a prince.

She was Cinderella by day, Ariel at night,

Belle in the meantime, and Jasmine

Everywhere else.

She believed in raining roses,

Pinks, yellows, reds and brilliant blues.

But as time passed by the world was harsh to her.

And her mind had turned to storms untamed.

It rained blood. Her house was haunted

And skeletons had been shoved into her

Closet.

Once upon a time

In her mind, here to stay

She was a witch

And like all witches desired power and a lust that would consume her.

Vanished was the love she once craved

And gone were the princesses in heart.

She was Maleficent, the wicked witch.

She thrived in broken hearts, crushed dreams,

Black was the color of her soul.

And as the time passed by, nothing seemed to change her.

And her mind turned to bitter agony...
