I met you years ago, barely knowing what to do or who to be
living life in a daydream
believing in all things make believe
I was a fairy princess, needing saving by a knight in shining armor
hiding who he truly was,
a fairy loved by an friendly queen was I,
she, hidden by a beautiful eye,
that queen being unbelievable desire and dreams
yet I didn't know, who she truly was
we grew up sided by side, that evil queen, glorious Knight and me,
playing games of make believe and feeling absolutely free
The older we grew, the more I fell in love with that knight,
the queen, kind of egging me, out of curiosity
then one day he flew away,
that queen sticking by my side, keeping my hope with me
helping me push through, just to laugh behind my back at my childly love for an evil knight
they worked together, tricking me, that knight not purposefully
my memories of us just becoming dreams
me, left with tired wings
then again my knight pushed through, just as I was getting over him
heartstring songs playing slowly, our make believe love rustling the leaves in the trees,
that queen, tugging at our hearts, yearning for our pain to burst.
dreams becoming memories
as my knight came back to me,
restoring my wings
and my make believe dreams
till a mission drove him away,
dragons and goblins surrounding me
crushing me
the queen laughing cruelly
egging her minions on to destroy me
crushing my dreams
I flew to him as time drew near
flying quickly without fear
just to see another fairy in my place
him crowning her the love of his dreams,
the queen I thought was my friend laughed wickedly
as she tore out my wings
laughing as I fell
tearing my soul with images of my knight and his fairy, as I fell
down
down
down
just to be crushed
by a couple truly in love.
