Not Your Cinderella

I am sorry it must come to an end

But darling my life has only just begun

 

We have made some memories

Us dancing on the teardrops of desperate lovers

Each second together a lifetime full of ignorance

 

We were young and foolish

Naïve to reality

Turning our backs against probability and chance

Out calculating the universe

Out smarting fate

 

But this is not my destiny

You are not my future

 

See darling it was only just a coincidence

That we met that night

 

Blue gown

Blond hair

Black eyes

Bouncing stares

 

Glass slippers cracking the silent glares

I walking down the stairs

Unaware of my unwanted presence

 

Magic leaked into my veins

Coursing through the velvet of my arms

It trickled down my soul

Seeping into the marble beneath me

 

You strode to my side

The ballroom glittering with crystals and diamonds

Was outshined by the fire between you and i

 

Oh darling but it was only a fairytale

We were only just a fairytale

 

I was not meant to be your princess

I was not meant to be your queen

I cannot live a lie

Based on lost shoes

And ticking time

 

The clock has struck midnight

I must leave you for the last time

I won't be leaving you a shoe to find

And I will be taking my heart and my mind

 

◄ I did not think

Nameless ►
