my fairy tale.

Picking you from amongst the shelves,

You stood out. subtly special, spotting a

Pink cover with purple glitter- I knew you were

Unlike the rest- a read with a twist to the

Usual fairy tale love story.


You drew me in with

The introduction, and sold I was three pages down

From the cover. Drawn into the plot

Emotionally, I was attracted to the gorgeous Navi- the

Other worldly charm of Sumory Jun Island.


You spoke of her many achievements, both

As an individual and as a leader. Of her

Immaculate beauty- almost divine- short

Of immortality only through her

Imperfections (through which make her perfect).


Dazzled I was, and enchanted I became with

Each page I flipped, I wanted to know

More about her. And I did, as I held you

In my hand, alone just you and

I. And so it was, until seven in the evening.


But as with all fantasies, they come

To an end. And I was found lost and wanting

To start from the top again, though

It would never be the same as

It was before.
