Last night,
I couldn't sleep,
so I wrote you a poem.

A beautiful poem
full of love and princesses and fairytales,
tales of dragons and dungeons and rescues.

I told you what I thought of you,
and all that I felt for you/

But then I tore it up.

Suddenly, in one fell swoop
that magic world faded away,
and the princesses and fairytales

Became pieces on the ground.
The story broke,
the dragons won,

And the town was torn apart.
You must wonder why I ripped it up,
and showed no one, told no one,

Not even you.

Those fairytales and princesses,

Dragons, dungeons and escapes,

Are not words enough,
(these few lines are not words enough)
to tell you how I feel.
