TWISTED FAIRY TALE
The fear abates for the very first time
She's finally able to take a breath
And take a good look around
Who would have ever thought?
She walks through forests of darkest hate
And wades through rivers of painful tears
And still the fear doesn't return
This is where she was meant to be
Lost in the fear of spoken tales
Others would have cried out
But the tales don't scare her now
She knows they were all true
This fairy tale weaves the tears
And boasts the pain of victims fears
She'll grasp the hand that's offered her
And follow the bloodstained paths right home
A shattered mirror graces the wall
Seven years good luck she hopes
Everything in this twisted tale
Just makes her feel even more at home
The red stained moon provide the light
And bathes the world in cold delight
She's not scared to touch the thorn
This isn't where the story ends
She laughs a bitter flavored laugh
And shakes out her mane of wild hair
Just what would they think now
If they could see the girl she's become?
A walk across the broken glass
Her blood now stains the floor
She smiles as she opens the door
And steps out of the world of the already known
The blackness swallows her whole
Just like she'd always dreamt it would
Lost in it's comforting embrace
She could easily lose track of the days
She always loathes to awake
From the life beyond the known
This is everything she's ever dreamed
And everything she'll ever need
This twisted fairy tale belongs to her
Locked safely in her twisted mind
And nobody will ever know
The world she uses to escape her own
