I wrote this with Vidablogg. This was something I have never done before but enjoyed doing so much. She wrote me her thoughts and I used her words to write this. I felt honored to get to do this with her and it was truly a partnership in emotion. Thank you for writing this piece with me!!!

A fairy tale encounter
My prince charming
My sweet happy ending
Handsomely disarming
Blind trust swept me away
Carried me in a river deep
Even the sun and the moon
Fell and bowed at your feet
Eventually the tide came
And tried to pull me under
Your mask came off
And I began to see
The colors that defined you
The realness that was you
Started to bleed from streams
Once golden to muddy brown
I try to hold the mask on
To hid the facade beneath
Afraid to unveil the truth
To lose this hope I clung too
Where did my prince charming go
The man I keep hoping will return
I stayed too long, I see that now
What once I loved, is broken sorrow
Broken glass reflecting what was
Can’t be fixed without the cracks
Damaged and bitter are the shards
You left stuck wounding my soul
Once a prince you became a thief
Robbing me of the person I was
No more dreams or hope for me
I am hurt, confused, and wrecked
Lost in my fairy tale haze of dreams
I sit alone in my castle walls
Locking up my own broken heart
To beat solitary among these halls
That’s really nice

Fairy tales do become distance with old age. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

This is such a strong poem hasty, so well written. I loved
“I try to hold the mask on/To hid the facade beneath/Afraid to unveil the truth/To lose this hope I clung too”
and
“Broken glass reflecting what was/Can’t be fixed without the cracks”
brilliant writing.

We all have our broken fairy tales I think. I really enjoyed writing this one…I could also relate to the feelings she had.

Yea…it makes it worse because we think we can trust someone again even though that is the hardest thing to do and then we find out we were wrong. And it sucks.

My belief is that she has a gift, which this addict coupled with life living through a product of his environment has stumbled on. May have this gift, the only way I am able know them is by touching? I had an interesting thought, possibly you’re one of the gifted maybe this why I feel your karma. However you connected with me another interesting question?
