Fairy-tale in Sonnet

Folder: 
poem sequence

Once upon a time, love comes to you

More precious than silver or gold

You hope and pray that it is true

You long for the words "to have and to hold"

Not knowing the path you are about to take

Does it have a fairy-tale ending

Is it and ending of happiness or hate

Will this heart need mending

Freedom from my imaginary land

No story ever ends this way

No handsome prince to grad my hand

And take me to a land far far away

   And so the story goes

   The princess will love alone
