Once Upon A Time

by Rachel   May 22, 2007


Once upon a time, I sang lullabies. You'd weave daises through my hair. We would dance beneath the stars. Once upon a time, you would make it all alright. My tears were kissed away and I didn't hide behind a smile. Once upon a time, it didn't hurt to love you. The only escape I needed was to look into your eyes. Once upon a time, I used to dream of you. But I couldn't wait to awaken next to your smiling face. Once upon a time - I lost that too. Lost in sleep. Drowning in blood and tears. Once upon a time, I did not need to see blood. To either sleep or cry. To destroy myself to keep my sanity. Once upon a time, I believed I would worn the stars. Or at least move the glaciers. But I can't even keep myself alive. I guess I'm never going to live happily ever after.
