Young Fairy Tales
All those Disney films
of love
of being happily ever after
And finding Prince Charming
Formed all the fantasies – Dreams
That once filled young girls’ minds
It’s so funny now
As a teenager
With a young girls’ mind
Seeking to fulfill fairy tales
only to find
HEART BREAK
Scars
You know it’s there
It’s something you feel
You don’t see it
It won’t go away
It hurts
You push it to the side
Ignore it
Unacknowledged the pain until
It comes back – it’s not really there
It never existed
It never hurt
It never happened
Its always going to be a scar.
Untitled
Carrying the weight of the world
All four walls closing in on me
Remnants of you everywhere
Everything we had, wish I could get it back
Promises, Dreams, and my Heart – All Broken
Left Alone
The Fundamentals of a Broken Heart
