The top of the mountain is only good for views, and inpiration, but the fruit is in the valley!


Once upon a time,
there lived a girl with short black hair
but her skin wasn't as white as snow
and she didn't have lips as red as blood
and she didn't have an evil step mother
who killed her father.
She instead had rich father
and a rich mother who wore
large earrings and big colored bracelets
with long heavy necklaces
and bright heavy make up
and that was the year she fell into a coma
and woke up to a handsome boy
and when he asked for her name
she simply said girl
because that's who she was

Once upon a time,
there lived a girl who dyed her hair blond
and let it grow long because
all the other girls said it would be prettier that way
and she no longer saw the handsome boy
who woke her from her coma
because he moved away to a different city
and dated a different girl
who he also woke from a coma
and she was very pretty
and her name didn't matter
that was the year her mother died
and her father married another woman with twins
and she called her step mother
and when step mother asked for her name
she simply said girl
because that's who she was

Once upon a time
There was a girl who dyed her hair red
and curled it every day because
her sisters said her blond hair looked ugly
and she waited for a young man
that didn't seem to notice her
and she changed her clothes
and wore expensive shoes
and she colored her face
with make up called "Natural"
and she lied to her father when he asked her
where she was going
that was the year she gave away
something very important
and she cried because
she couldn't get it back
and her father was furious
so she cried some more
and when her father asked her
who do you think you are
she simply said girl
because that's who she was

Once upon a time
there was a girl who stopped dying her hair
and when it grew out, it was brown
and she read books everyday after work
because books made her feel better
and she was asked out by many young men
because she was very beautiful
but she would always say no
telling them she was waiting for him
and she dreamed of traveling the world
and visiting poor places
so she could help as much as she can
That was the year she met a young man
who was picked on and called names
and he fought back and pushed
and he was angry so she decided to help
She found out he had no friends
because of a stupid mistake
he'd made years ago
and she told him her story
and they became friends
and when he asked for her name
she simply said girl
because that's who she was

Once upon a time
there was a girl with long curly brown hair
and she stopped wearing make up
and couldn't read what she wanted as much
because she didn't have time for it anymore
and she went to college to be a writer
and wrote about everything and everyone
she wrote about her mother
and she wrote about her father
and she wrote about her step mother
and she wrote about the handsome boy
who woke her from her coma
and the boy who took away
something very important
and the angry young man
who became her friend
this was the year she showed
everything she wrote to the man
she was going to marry
because she loved him very much
and he loved her very much
and when he was done reading
he smiled and gave her a kiss
and she smiled back
looking at the ring she wore on
an important finger
and when the moment came
he would call her Princess
because that's who she is

THE END
