The cliff overlooks the sea,
it's breeze rolls over the flowers that set on the mountainside,
A girl sits on the cliff's ledge,
dropping her feet and swinging them to the melody of the wind,
This Is Her Happy Place,
But on rough, stormy, days
she sits in a room,
huddled against the corner,
unsure wether tears will spout,
or if she will shake in fear,
shouting words ring in her ears,
lingering in her mind,
What had happened?
Even she didn't know.
Think back to that sunny day,
when the blossoming flowers
sent sweet aromas rising into the tangy, salty air,
think back to that lush day,
where trees maneuvered on the mountainside,
over the path leading to a far distanced paradise.
A sunny, breezy, happy day that covers every scream,
covers every tear,
A fake smile that was created as an illusion.

Has my sorrows left,
as I thought they had,
or could my tears be revived?
Though these may have regenerated,
my feelings for him are long gone,
or so I believe them to be.
When he returns, how will time pass,
as it is now,
or will love blossom once again?

None of these memories are formed through myself,
They are re-enacted by another me,
The past moves with time as I'm trapped here,
re-living, yet far removed from this time,
It's not me, but my shadow,
I'm not included in my own darkness,
are they truly mine,
or just scenes to be replayed in another dimension.

Words and Phrases that split the mind,
Chaos hidden from deep within,
Confusion and frustration surface without rhyme or reason,
Sadness, hate, fear, tears,
these urges are random and unwanted,
Secrets buried from the past,
shoveling their way out,
why do these memories haunt me?
Shards from a mosaic,
come together to unleash an image of devastation.

Do happy endings always end happily?
Are fairy tales really fair and kind to all within them?
What about little red's wolf who was cut down,
hacked to pieces by the woodsmen's axe?
Not a day was left in his cut-short life.
He was hungry and without options.
What about their side of the story?
Malecifent was executed;
a sword to the Dragon's heart.
She was excluded and deemed evil.
What about their happily ever after?
Their actions may no have been moral,
nor so easily dismissed,
yet a villain should still have a good end.
Did they want to be called 'villains'
a title given to the wicked.
Don't all characters deserve a happy ending?
Is there really such a thing as villains?
Those who are deceitful, fierce, or cruel,
have their reasons for what they do.
Or is it a title bestowed to the misunderstood?

Her words only hit the glass,
as they ricochet from off my boundary,
Useless trails are only errors to me,
try and try again,
but your actions are futile,
sickened from your arrogance,
maddened from your incompetence,
why must this red string bind us?
Fate beckons us together,
but I walk the length of the string,
keeping you at arm's length,
Don't announce your recent event,
you try over and over to replace me,
I'll never fill that gap,
the emptiness I left in you,
Lie and Love is all I can conjure,
love for a mother whom I see now and then,
Lies for someone special I can't bare to hurt.

The fluttering of the blossoms embrace the sky,
as they land on the newly green ground,
spring has came,
and along with it the cherry blossoms bloom,
A sweet but short romance they symbolize,
such a delicate scene,
they bloom but only last a little while,
such a sweet tragedy,
yet next spring they'll bloom again,
maybe we'll meet once again my true love,
fate will bring us together.
