Forgotten Princess

Some just wait to be saved.

Forgotten Princess

Invisible,
the girl awaits her
Savior
         in her self-inflicted tower...
Forgotten.


Guarded by
         stagnant demons,
her heart shattered
on an alter
to lies.
         She waits...
Forgotten.


A princess of her own
Design.
Ruling a faded
Country,
shrouded in sheer shadows of
Hate,
         Her kingdom waits...
Forgotten.


Shackled in her tower,
         she is her witch,
                   her stepmother.
Awaiting their
Savior
         and
Executioner.
         Because he has...
Forgotten.


A two toned, broken
Beauty.
Alone.
Waiting.
with her Beast as company.
Herself.
         She is but a...
Forgotten Princess.
