Fairy Tale Told Yesterday

Still holding onto

the remnant remains,

the promise of love unforgotten,

as they unfurl untold in her heart,

within her soul,

she holds it tightly as if sewn between her longing cusps,

the slowly un-aging embers of yester-years,

the pains left forlorn, forgone

she cherishes him, misses him, her prince, who chose his demise

she wilts, sheds her solitude, bleeds

and unites them with the tears of the rain,

she reminisces while seeking for nature’s embrace,

she searches  and wonders whether her story will ever be saved

or forever lost and heard

just
     like  
          any  
               other  
                        fairy tale  
                                      told  
                                           
                        yesterday….
