number forty- cinderella

19 5 2
                                    

the ashes caressed her face,

forever burning her a new name

one where she could feel like a princess for a day

then she lost her shoe,

but a prince found it anew

the crystal glass slipper

fit for none other

except her

who had been a princess

for more then a day

because her heart

wore the crown

that royalty

made
