Your my Prince Charming but I'm not your Cinderella

Every time I think of you my heart breaks even more,

Your smile lit up my world,

Your eyes so full of laughter spoke of a past,

A past before you left,

Left me on my own,

A past of laughter and innocence,

no burden of pain to carry.

A past with just me and you

A fairytale come true.

But I suppose you could say my clock struck midnight and I had to go,

You made me promises you couldn't keep,

Swore you would find me again,

and would never leave,

so i waited,

and i waited,

but you never came.

You left me waiting, dreaming of a promise that you never kept.

I finally learned that everything wasn't going to end happily ever after,

but i still believe that you're my prince charming, even if I'm not your Cinderella

I feel like I can connect and relate to this poem, and that's one of the most important things in my opinion! Great work =) And I love the contrast you used in the last line xD

I LOOOOOOOOOVE THIS          

so many lines I really like exspecially(sp?) the clock striking midnight and you're my Prince Charming, even if I'm not your Cinderella.  Only criticism I've got is you should capitalize your "i"  and end the poem with a period.  Unless that's some sort of format?  Very good job I'll favorite it!!! :D
