Happily Ever After

Once upon a time...How cliche...Don't you think?
Once upon a time in a town small enough to miss if you blink
Grew a girl with an unique and special gift.
One that started to show everytime she became pissed.
Weird and unexplainable experiences were a constant for her.
The closer she got to insanity the more frequently the unexplainable would occur.

Then came the day she was old enough to date.
Sadly Prince Charming never came so patiently she was forced to wait.
She stood there as her sisters were married. Then divorced.
Still patiently she waits for her knight in shinning armor on a white horse.

Fairytales teach little girls that is how men should act.
But the gentleman gene is what the men of this era lack.
Happily Ever After leaves you wondering if In Death Did They Part.
Was it love at first site or was it lust that left one with a broken heart?
