The Girl Who Lost But Still Won

As A child she had such big dreams of her life yet to be, oh how sure of that felt she! How she loved to dream though about her perfect prince yet to come, and when that time came she would not be to young. But for now she would sing and dance, until she was old enough to have that chance. Years went by and then one day she realized how from her the time had sprung , and now she was not too young. One day when she was not in the least expecting it , A guy caught her as from A fall she was about to slip. He came from nowhere, and he certainly did not try to even slightly  his charm  spare. Then one day she felt like he let his charm slip , and for A minute she thought she lost her grip.He knew how to use his words , for her to quickly reassure. As time went on though sometimes she thought she caught A glimpse of something dark, but when  she tried to pinpoint it she could not seem to  get to its mark. If it was not so then surely it was as if someone had covered up A snake, by making it look like A luscious chocolate cake! Yes this girl wanted it all, oh but how she was going for A fall. She always choose to let the good outweigh the bad, for she really did not like to be sad! She erased the bad from her mind, and went about her life as if she were blind. She looked high up in the sky and saw the sun , but choose to forget the days like rain that did not make her life fun. She just wanted to be happy and have A half full glass, was that too much to ask? But one day she saw him with another girl, and it seemed like the end of her world. The prince just laughed and said, you believed me when I told you that you were the only one, and here I did it just for fun. And you have always believed my words and I just like to play, and you just happened to one day fall in my way. The girl said well I do have one thing to thank you for, even if it seemed to me  like A chore. And that is I was given A preview  test  and you helped me practice so surely there is no doubt anymore,  what answers to now look for. And here you thought  you took something from me  and that from it lost was the score, no that is not true  and now I will not fail the test ever......... no not   anymore!
