Once     upon a time

when    princesses still existed,

I          thought about nothing else, I

was      feeble-minded and maybe I

still      am because

a         prince entered my realm of life, and I became the little

girl      that I once was. But when

I         was kissed by my so-called prince, he

had     poison gracing his lips, and

a        second later, I realized it was nothing but

dream.
