The fairy tale began
in the usual way
Plans, dreams
a vision of perfection
Until the magic mirror
cracked
revealing the Dark Side
Chapter Two
brought together
two fractured souls
Desperately trying
to slay dragons with
broken arrows that somehow
missed the mark
Editing began
frantic at first
Slowly morphing into
deliberate intention
The heroine became
her own hero
as she rewrote the story
Wasn’t until
she let go
that plans, dreams
and that vision of perfection
fit her version
Allowing enough room
to let the true prince
share her castle
