I Don't Get My Happily Ever After

bytheoncomingstorm©

Once upon a time darling I met you
You were my Prince Charming; this is what I knew
Our eyes met across the twisted miles
It was love at first sight as soon as I saw your smile
But as you look upon me now it’s ice and evil you see
You dare even ask what it was that changed me
Come, I’ll show you the poison that was injected into my veins
Stare into the looking glass and you’ll see what causes me pain
Oh Mirror, Mirror on the wall
Whose the one who made me fall?
It’s you baby; can’t you see it in your eyes?
The way you’re slowly killing me with your cruel lies?
You turned me into the Evil Queen, made me into a bitter witch
You cast a spell upon my heart turning me into Maleficent
You ripped my heart from me and from my pain you took a sip
The blood of my innocence stains your lips
Once upon a time darling I was Snow White
You never showed up to kiss away the poisoned bite
I use to be Rapunzel; waiting for you to climb my hair
You left me in the tower; you didn’t even try the stairs
I was once Jasmine, just wanting a normal life
Now I’ll never marry for love; I’ll make a horrible wife
Once upon a time I was Belle, seeing the beauty in your beast
Your claws ripped me apart and on my flesh you did feast
I use to be Cinderella; dreaming of attending the ball
You got what you wanted before midnight and I never got another call
I was once Tiana, kissing the singing frog
But the kiss turned me too and now I wander aimlessly through the bog
Once upon a time I was Ariel; forced to return to the sea
You were Eric on the shore oblivious to me
I use to be Aurora but then I took a fall
And the funny thing is that you didn’t care at all
I was once a princess, lovely as can be
But look darling what you made of me
You get to go on in life in love, joy, and laughter
But I don’t get my happily ever after
