IF I SANG A POEM
WOULD IT BE A SONG
IF I WROTE A SONNET
WOULD IT BE SO WRONG
IF I TRIED TO CAPTURE
A HEART THAT
WASN'T MINE
WOULD I BE SELFISH
AND WOULD IT STOP BEATING
IN TIME
JUST LIKE A BUTTERFLY
THAT LIVES FOR A DAY
I WOULDN'T WANT THAT
TO HAPPEN
IN ANY WAY
LOVE IS SO FRAGILE
I THINK I CRUSHED
ALL HOPE
SO NOW WHAT'S LEFT
I HAVE TO COPE
WITH AN EMPTY VOID
THAT NO ONE CAN FILL
BECAUSE I DREAMT
YOU COULD
THOUGH I KNEW
YOU NEVER WOULD
THAT THIS WAS JUST A
FAIRYTALE
WHERE I WAS LIKE
RIDING HOOD
EXCEPT I FELL FOR THE
WOLF
INSTEAD OF THE WOODCUTTER
WHY DO THE BAD GUYS
BREAK HEARTS
AND GOOD GURLS SUFFER
WHY DOES IT MATTER
THAT I DONT LOOK LIKE
GRANDMA
WHEN I LOOK IN THE MIRROR
WHY DOES IT LIE TO ME
ONLY SAINTS DON'T AGE
DO THEY
MAYBE IM A LIVING ANGEL
LIKE JACK ONCE SAID TO ME
AND CALLED ME HIS SLEEPING
BEAUTY
BUT LIKE CINDERELLA
I WANTED A FELLA
WHO WOULD DANCE
WITH ME AT THE BALL
BUT MY FAIRY GODMOTHER
NEVER CALLED
AGAIN
AND I LOST MY SLIPPER
MY HEART AND
ALMOST MY MIND
IN MY SEARCH
FOR A PRINCE
I WILL NEVER FIND.
