Princess Poems
When I was young
Fairy tales filled my mind
I dreamt of my prince
Coming to take me away
And if I wished on a star
My dreams would come true
And if my heart cried out
Love would save me
But by growing up
Every tale told became cursed
There was no prince
Stars denied my wishes
And dreams that I dared to dream
Never did come true
Hopes faded
As I became jaded
Life grew dark
Life was killing the dream
But I needed to somehow keep those precious tales alive
With each shattered dream I grew stronger
Finding myself returning to those tales
Believing what my heart always knew
That someday my prince would come
And someday a wish upon a star
Would come true
It wasn't until I heard those voices again
Of love and hope
Snow White and Cinderella
Singing to me familiar songs
Where I could begin to dream again
And live again
Hope was alive
Because of those stories
If you're told something enough times
You'll start to believe
And I did with all my heart
And still do today
Even though everyone tells me
"That only happens in fairy tales"
The little innocent girl within
Refuses to let those tales go

Ever Wonder What
A Princess Is?
The soul of a princess
Soars the blackened skies
Searching for a fairy tale
Beneath the mounting lies
The heart of a princess
Sails along the darkest sea
Showering you with feelings
Of peace and serenity
Her scent is like forbidden secrets
Like dark things better left unsaid
Searching for her prince
Finding demons instead
She's bravely drank the poison
Often disguised as wine
Tasting the bitterness of death
And surviving it just fine
The princess holds great power
As many are aware
Some cannot control themselves
As they're forced to stop and stare
Her beauty is like darkness
Dominating your sight
Her touch is an addiction
Flaming fingers of delight
In the dark recesses of your mind
Surrender to the dream
Allow the princess to guide you
Taking you to the extreme
She'll help the stars fulfill your wishes
Lighting up the blackest night
She'll bring happiness you deserve
Don't let her out of your sight
