Cinderella

by Infected with His Deadly Love   Apr 28, 2007


Her two older step-sisters
Bossing her around
Washing the clothes
Scrubbing the ground

Her step-mum
Doesn't care for her
Nor does her step-sisters
They make her cater

She sits on her bed
At night she cries
Wishing someone will save her
Before she dies

He prince will come
She just doesn't know
For she doesn't believe
That he will show

She is left alone
While they go to the ball
Her fairy god-mother
Will save her, once and for all

She gives her a beautiful dress
A cart for her to get there
She has to be back by midnight
This is her night, not to care

She dances with her prince
But now its time to go
As she rushes out the door
She leaves her glass slipper below

The prince picks it up
And keeps if so he can find her once more
Because he knew she was the one
When she first walked through the door

He searches and searches
Night after night, day after day
He will not give up looking for her
He will find her and get his way

He finally finds her after awhile
Her knight in shining armor
He rescued her from her horrid step-mum
As she walked down the altar

    It was okay.
    It wasn't the best I've read out of you.
    But it also wasn't the worst I've read
    Out of this whole site.
    This stanza...

    Her step-mum
    Doesn't care for her
    Nor does her step-sisters
    They make her cater

    It kind of seemed forced.
    Other than that, I love the simplicity
    Of your words.
    5/5 m'dear :]

    Oooh, classic. It's good for what it is... a beautiful story. Yup. nicely done.

    But... out of curiousity, don't you think writing your own fiction is more...fulfilling than re-writing someone else's?
    I mean no offence.
    Happy writing-
