Broken Tales
by yours truly

Time is ticking until it got midnight,
I keep running with all my might,
I keep living with my own dream,
Away from a fairy tale I don't want to begin.

I haven't left my shoe nor anything,
It is my heart who is slowly falling,
It's not a prince who I'm escaping,
But his words that will lead to breaking.

Tales made me believe that all have happy endings,
I drove myself to get stuck on fantasies,
And when he started to choose his princess,
I fit, but he never tried looking onto my stares,
I am an outcast who he never cares,
And burn his promises into ashes.

I no longer believe in magic,
When he forgot my presence is truly tragic,
He told me I'm the only girl that will spark,
He didn't know universe consist of a million stars,
That will try to beam more its light,
And standout every night,
Morning came, I'm not a sun who'll longer shine,
Cause the prince in my story is no longer mine.
