Sinderella Story
Long ago, I gave up Everything
just to be with you ~
Were you even worth the costs
I have paid ?
Not even close !!
Windows shattering,
Doors slam briskly shut ~
One heart turned to ice
But meekly beats on.
Slowly seeing you clearly
for what you truly are,
Asking myself - Why ?!?!
Now, alone again ...
On my own again ~
With nothing except
the pain filled memories
And broken dreams .
The reflection in the mirror changes ~
You no longer exist there .
Did you ever really love me ??
Did you ever really care ??
Mistaking Hell for Heaven
Like a fool I risked it all ~
And for what ??
Forsaken moments with you !!
Risks never worthy of taking ~
You were never worthy of this heart so true .
Mind games you play
To merely get your own way,
And I dolefully portrayed The Jester's Fool ~
You rode in as a Prince Charming
Upon a glistening snow white steed
Promising me ever after
And breaking each promise you ever uttered,
For so long now you have held
my heart hostage - squeezing it like a vice,
But from this day forth
I break free from your tight grasp ~
The clock has stuck Midnight far too many times for you,
And this Sinderella chooses NOT
to play your 'lil games any longer -
For, I now know
Fairy tales do Not come true
If they did - I would not have met you ...
