The Forever Princess

By TornPieces

I am a princess, twirling in the wind.
It is my birthday, dont you see..
see my crown?

someone else will be eating my cake
for if I open my eyes, and see my candles waiting to be blown..
.I know,

eventually...
They will go out,
and I will once again be home, and my birthday shall be over

The bruises will re appear, and lies will flourish out of my mouth
to my teachers,
to my friends

no.
I have none, I will celebrate here. forever.

in this mountain, against this howling tree....It is my birthday ,

it is my birthday
see my crown?

the candles will never go out.

Amen.

You seem, feeling very fragile right now. It may be hard right now, but in the future things will get better
