Once Upon a Time II
Once upon a time
Life happened
And it was glorious and wonderful and lovely
Until it wasn't
That taught me that just because things started off as fairytale
Does not mean they will end that way
There was once a girl whose life was marked by tragedy
Each year she lost someone she loved
Like clockwork, like a curse
Trauma is a beautiful brutish thing
It creates pain where there should exist none
It imprints itself on life like a stamp
Our little heroine hates death
But has been taught to fear life as well
This story is not a sad one
But I bet you've already assumed it is
Once upon a time, life happened to this girl
It was glorious and tragic and wonderful and sad
But it was life nonetheless
She lost loved ones
But gained more
She wrote this story
A sloped languid tale
But she refused to end it
She refuses to end it
Life happened
And it was glorious and wonderful and lovely
Until it wasn't
That taught me that just because things started off as fairytale
Does not mean they will end that way
There was once a girl whose life was marked by tragedy
Each year she lost someone she loved
Like clockwork, like a curse
Trauma is a beautiful brutish thing
It creates pain where there should exist none
It imprints itself on life like a stamp
Our little heroine hates death
But has been taught to fear life as well
This story is not a sad one
But I bet you've already assumed it is
Once upon a time, life happened to this girl
It was glorious and tragic and wonderful and sad
But it was life nonetheless
She lost loved ones
But gained more
She wrote this story
A sloped languid tale
But she refused to end it
She refuses to end it
