Happy Endings

Happy Endings
                Do you believe in fairy tales?
     That is something my mother always asked me 
before                                                        
     I drifted off  to the sound of her loving, placid voice.
     But I never gave her an answer. So unsure of what my 
     Life would come to be. Now thinking back, I’m so very
     Grateful to myself for neglecting to respond. For now I
     Am not so certain that she would see me as something to  
     Be satisfied of with. Maybe it wouldn’t exactly be me,
     However, something within me. I know this to be a fact,
     Because what I see in the eye of my soul is a reflection of 
     Who I long to be. my derelict heart has shattered into a 
     Trillion pieces, and hope seems to have run away from the
     Home, the home that I have built for it inside of  me. now 
     I am hopeless. snow white without her dwarfs.
                                     Cinderella without her glass slipper.
                                                           The princess without her pea.
                                     Where’s my happy ending?
