I am a princess, all girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty or smart or young. They're still princesses, all of us." -Frances Hodgeson Burnett, A Little Princess

Live in the present, remember the past and fear not the future, for it doesn't exist and never shall. There is only now." _Christopher Paolini, Eldest


We met and you tried to woo me
You were different but I didn’t want that
I thought I did, but it wasn’t me

I refused you
So you took me away
You made me say things that weren’t true

I claimed to hate you
You said that would change
You didn’t have a clue

The unexpected happened
My views were smartened
I fell in love with you
The problem is, I know it’s true

Love is so new
It’s hard to hide true love
Why did it have to be you?

I need a medication
I am lovesick
Look at my coloration

I’m trapped and I can’t get loose
I don’t even know if I want to
I’ve been thinking about calling a truce

The unexpected happened
All my senses sharpened
I agreed to marry you
And my parents don’t have a clue

I disappeared for you
A year later, I show up at my parents’
A vase at you they threw


They knew you’re bad
They couldn’t accept it
I sure feel sorry for my dad

They hated you more than I ever did
They thought I was too young for marriage
They treated me like a kid

The unexpected happened
Up they shapened
They let the wedding go on
I sure won

The unexpected happened
Our love fastened
I became like you
Now THAT was new!


The author's comments:
I wrote this poem from the eyes of a character in a book I was writing to better know her but it has other meanings like that people could be different than you thought and, if you just give them a chance, they can be really great. Oh! And to keep your mind open.
