Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time there lived what her family called a princess

living her whole life with so much she wanted to confess

going through life wrapped up in a protective bubble

her parents thinking this would keep her out of trouble

little did they know this would make the trouble double

keeping all these thoughts she had inside

unable to forget the day she took a life ruining ride

the question why always ringing in her head

and how different everything would have been if no is what she had said

to her it feels like she’s slowly losing her balance

although she’s been blessed with so many different talents

the scale is now tipping over to the wrong side

still she does not find someone with whom she can confide

she is slowly growing apart from her dad

being unable to count the sleepless nights she’s had

she seems ok when she is alone

but gets uneasy when talking with her friends on the phone

crazy how they say silence can be so loud

yet we are so easily influenced by the noise of a crowd

how is it possible that one mistake can be life changing

how can one wrong move be so degrading

her life started off so bright but now it seems to be slowly fading

on the surface she wears a smile brighter than the sun

but underneath its all pain and no fun

feeling chained up and wishing she could just run

run so far away from this two faced life she is living

she’s come so close to telling but still won’t give in

instead she keeps all these feelings inside

walks away and finds a new place to hide

every story doesn’t have a happy ending

and as you could see all she wanted was to stop pretending
