Fairytale Moments

In her form

She danced through the storm

Under the blanket of star lit skies

Thunder rumbled her wondering arms

Escaping through thorns and wire

She helped herself give way to life that was her prisoner

She was her own fighting machine

Leaving emptiness of her mind and brain

As isolated broken back walls

She hit them with fear

Crying out loudly

But no one could hear

She danced to her own tune

Like many of her generations before

Living on the edge of fairytale stories

Was something she wanted no more

Reality hit her like a ton of bricks

Lessons in life lit her up inside like candle sticks

The button has switched

No longer was she lost

She wanted more to dance for

She wanted more than just to pause

Taking her skirt and softening curls to her side

Into the night this lady did ride

Her motor of freedom

With a long mane of hair

Waited gracefully for her

To ride him again

As she whispered in his ear

Take me away from here

He gladly delivered

This beast so dear
