Broken

Once upon a time
there was a girl
and a boy

And she loved him
with all her heart

But he didn’t.

Her love was strong
and her entire heart
was devoted to him

But his wasn’t.

She wished that they could be
together forever

But he didn’t.

And one sad, lonely, gray, foggy day
He just left her
all alone
stealing her heart away

And she cried.

She lived in a perfect fairytale
and he stole her innocent beauty

This time
in this story
there was no such thing
as happily ever after.
