Paused in Time
April 28, 2014
flashback to princessess
a dollhouse transformed
plastic glass slippers
slender fingers drift apart
flashback to pirates
ships bearing bloodthirsty brutes
an eyepatch for looks
ticking crocodiles
flash forward to now
unnecessary deaths
broken hearts
weapons destroying more than lives
unknown hardships
lives of fear
flashback to childhood
paused in time
