Once upon a time
In a land far far away
Their was a prince
With long lushes locks
And a chiseled face
Dark blue eyes
A Heart full of grace
And loneliness
He wanted a bride
Someone to be
The love of his life
He searched
And searched
And searched
But no one felt right
That lonely prince
is I
Not one girl
In all the land
Could I call mine
I asked a wise wizard
What should I do
He looked at me
Up then down
He stroked his chin
And said
You don't need a girl,
You need a ma-
He began to cough
Sorry, sorry,
You need someone
strong,
Brave,
Intelligent,
Handsome,
I interrupted him
Handsome?
Does that mean
She'll be taller then me?
He rubbed his forehead
And sighed
I don't know
They might, maybe
Be taller then you
But that really
Is not the point
I smiled excitedly
She sounded really cool
Your highness,
If you wish to find love
Travel three days west

To a castle
Reaching,
Stretching,
Almost to the clouds
In that castle they will be
Also their is a chance
You will have to fight
A dragon
But just a small chance
I frowned
I didn't know if this girl
Was worth fighting
A dragon
I straddled my horse
And began my journey
I would find this castle
I would look all around
If I found a dragon
I would run
No girl
Was worth fighting
A dragon
I traveled and traveled
For three days
Until I looked upon
A castle on a mountain
It almost, almost
Touched the sky
My horse refused
To go up the mountain
I could not see why
A dark gloomy sky
Did not always mean
Bad things
So I walked
Taking many breaks
So I would not
Get cramps
I found myself
In front of a large door
Rain pouring down
Thunder rumbling
Lightning cracking
My horse was right
Dark sky equals bad
I opened the door
And the creaking
Echoed through the room
I wandered around
Looking hunting
But no one was found
Not a dragon
Not a queen
Not a king
Not a princess
Not a prince
I found a throne
Covered in jewels
I sat down to rest
I leaned back
My eyes fluttered
Darkness
(lonely)
Slowly
(love)
(fight)
Took
(beast)
(hide)
(never)
Me
(safe)
(death)
(alone)
(always)
Alone
