Not Happily Ever After
Beautiful and elegant
She mops the kitchen floor
Standing close to an old wooden door
Determined and prepared
She starts to climb
Up the wall, to the clock,
so she can have more time
Surprised and startled
She looks so pale
Among seven small people,
all of them male
Sad and depressed
She begins to cry
In the small empty room
where her prince said goodbye
