Once upon a time I was lost,
Then I met you and thought I was found.
A little too late I discovered,
All of your lies and deceptions.
You led me on a path so wrong,
Further from the place I should be.
I wondered how I missed all the signs,
You would disappear for days at a time,
Without a single word as to where you were.
Hurt and broken I begin to wonder,
Why I didn’t listen to my friends?
Why didn’t I see the signs? Once upon a time.
I use to think you were perfect,
Always there when I needed you,
Sometimes before I realized I needed you,
The right words and a smile from you meant That everything would be okay.
Now I discovered it was all part of your game,
Meant to keep me around & not suspecting.
You did a grand job on that part,
Never did I suspect a thing was wrong.
Once upon a time I was blind,
Believing every word you said,
Never questioning the strange .
Now with my eyes open I see the truth .
Once upon a time I believed in fairy tales,
The happily everafter & someone for everyone
Now I know there is no real prince,
And I’m no average Cinderella.
For once upon a time I had a heart full of love,
It was broken and bruised by all your lies.
I have yet to get an apology from you ,
Although we both know your not sorry.
Now I know once upon a time ,
Was just meant for the fairytales,
For lil kids and dreamers with no hopes,
For I see I am not meant to be happy.
I wish I could go back in time when my heart
Was whole, I wish I never met you.
Once upon a time I was hurt and,
Once upon a time I had all my dreams shattered
This Cinderella is not meant to get her prince
He shattered my dreams & broke my love
Forever will I be sad, forever will I be lonely
Forever will I dream of my once upon a time
Nightmare without a prince to save me. |
