No princess in a tower

by Devyna   Dec 7, 2010


This mirror image of me
Not what it appears to be
A lie wrapped in ribbons and bows
Drowning in her own ocean of sorrow and woes

Locked in her tower all day and night
Wanting to escape
Her biggest fear is failure of flight

Tears never have stained such a beautiful face
The world stays blind to her pain
The perfect life that refuses to show a fault's trace

Never saved by a prince
This is no princess
Merely a trophy from a mold
A desired body to undress

Now with her mouth sewn shut
A testament to no escaping
From the tower in which she is stuck
