Through the day,

As I lay,

I silently think of you,

Because everything I think of you I realize what is true.

Pain comes pounding through my head,

I wish life were a fairytale like in the books i've read.

But who am I to wish for something that will never be real,

this life I dream of will only be something I can feel.

This won't be a magic ending.

I'm just a girl who's heart needs mending.

I'll have no castle to give me cover,

nor do I have a magical fairy godmother.

I'm not awakened by a single kiss,

or have a prince I can desperately miss.

I'm not flying to a new land,

or holding pixie dust in the palm of my hand.

I'm not part of that world.

You're just a boy and i'm just a girl.

Saying we 'lived happily ever after' would be a lie,

I silently wait for you to say goodbye.
