..fairy tales..

Here she sits in the tall, green grass lost in the games she plays. Where nothing bad can ever touch her. She is a princess one day and movie star the next. She dreams of long, beautiful dresses or sold out shows where she sings her heart out. She thinks of kissing like they do in the movies and loving like her mommy loves her daddy. She dances in circles in the tall, green grass where nothing bad can ever touch her. It is her kingdom there, her castle of protection.

Here she sits in the tall, green grass longing for days of fairy tales and wishing wells where nothing bad could find her. She wishes for days where she was a princess or a movie star. And where kissing like they do in the movies was so magical. She no longer dances in circles in the tall, green grass or sings at sold out shows. Now she hides in the tall, green grass hoping to escape the nightmares that follow. It is no longer her kingdom, but her castle in ruins.

Here she sits in the tall, green grass where the shadows have passed her and blue skies are in front of her. She no longer sits here alone but in the arms of her lover. Wrapped safely with him she remembers.. She is a princess one day and a star the next, in his eyes she is everything. She no longer dreams about the way they kiss in the movies but kisses like its her last. She now loves like her mommy did and longs for nothing. She has come to find that dancing in circles like she use to do, is so much more when it’s a dance for two. Here she is.. Back in her kingdom, her castle of protection. This little girl, once a princess is now a woman, forever a queen in the tall, green grass.

For my Sissy... Love you!
