As the light dies down,
on this cruel winter night
her eyes slowly blinked
as she lie there
staring at the ceiling above
..
the insipid darkness
swallowed her whole
and the void overwhelmed her
as she took note
of the wave of despair
swept across her face
...
so slowly,
she slipped into reverie
fantasizing about the love
that had changed her life
that stole her every breath
....
and soon her every
wish came true
the day that she met her prince
who showed her the love
that only a fairytale brings
