Where am I? Enchanting Ariel's seas,
Ingesting delish treats with Fairy Queen,
With hungry Winnie chasing after bees,
Or dancing deep in distant forest green?

Shhh, are those the seven Dwarfs I hear,
Or Snow White singing bliss in peaceful song?
The magic mirror brings cold dangers near;
The witch and poisoned apple move along.

Vengeance, hatred, spite, and plot,
Under joy and friendship, are sinking,
Against such ardent love the cruel wins not,
And my world concludes in happy ending.

To Grimm and Andersen I lift the veils;
I yearn for words and live in fairy tales.

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
- Maya Angelou
When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn’t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out
The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay
If love produced a blossom/I’d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I’d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven
And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel

Beautiful... A poem that reminds that this is something I yearn for too...

I am so in love with this sonnet. Definitely the best I've read so far. The flow was very good and the rhyme scheme was well carried out and didn't feel forced. It's very good!

Truly, this is one amazing piece. So much so that I now make my first comment on TeenInk in honour of it! 

The fluidity captured me in this tight composition. :)

The truth is that at some point, everyone's going to hurt you. You just have to decide who's worth the pain.

Some say having something to lose is what makes you vulnerable. I believe that having something to lose only makes you stronger.

This really is adorable - I love all of it, and you get huge extra points because of all these things we treasured as kids. I want to run with pooh and eat too much honey, sing with the dwarfs, and laugh with the funny, fall in love with the prince and sail off to happily ever after in a hurry. :)
