Cinderellas Apology Letter (Poem)
Cinderellas Apology Letter (Poem)
She must’ve seen the worse kinds of things in you… and me…
This Cinderella’s sleep deprived because
She spent the past forty days and nights alone
Thinking of how it used to be, can’t get back to me
And this pumpkin carriage has turned to weathered carrots
Trotting along this ghoulish fool, strings tied to hearts in the sand
Dragging behind me like a old shoe box filled with you, my man
Naked from his ego and drenched in fear, just like I told you
The walls come down and you’re alone, you’re alone…
And I told you so, hate to say it, but I told you so
Yes, I told you how this would all go
So take your last poem from the mantle
Give it to our little girl, keepsake pearl
She must’ve seen the worse
She must’ve seen the worse
Because we both know that she must’ve seen the worst kinds of things ~
