Stories of princesses
Stories of love
Meeting one day

In fairy land.
Now a real tale

To amuse your ears

To quake your heart

And make tears fall.

Heres that story

Of another girl

No princess

No royalty

Jsut another girl.

Another girl

Who loves another boy

Who loves

A Princess

Another girl

A princess

Another boy.

A boy who loves

The princess afar

A girl who loves a boy

Unlike others.

A girl

Who wants her own

Happily Ever After

A girl who wants

A boy to have his

Happily Ever After.

Shall they ever

Live Happily Ever After

Together?

    Suggestions if you want them or revising:
    A new stanza starting at ln 11.

    Ln 21-31 I had to read over and over to understand, if this is a purposeful effect bravo, if not re think the wording or something, but as is, it made my head spin.

    A minor thing that I would just like for you to try and see if you like or not, in ln 37 and 38, if you had the live at the end of 37 instead of starting line 38, I'm curious how it would effect the reader when they got to the end.

    Koo-doe points:
    The short line sound given to the poem in its structure made me think and got me enthralled in reading between the lines. The poem began capturing me and I believe it was a large part to how it sounded as I read it out loud. Another point on structure, is I keep wondering after reading it if there is meant to be a form in the way it is write, like a picture hidden int he lines or anything. Just curious if there is.

    I like the poem on the most part and I hope you great luck in the contest. Keep up with this writing style, I think you have a knack for story telling poetry.
