Edna Purviance, Jackie Coogan, and i on st. valentine's day

By heroineyes

we hear the door click...

(door opens)

...rush to the edges of
our pillow fortification,

(defensive...

...glancing out...)
the beautiful princess
returns to

her knights in waiting.
smiles from brave gentle-men
"your kingdom awaits..."

(lying on the floor)
i love to see you smile
