Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time I thought I could be a princess
I thought I could wear beautiful dresses and kiss handsome boys
But then some man decided to take my innocence
And ignorant kids decided to take my crown
And leave me slumped on the ground
With the hem of my dress all tattered and torn.
Once upon a time a boy told me I was ugly
And that I would go to hell for what I did
He told me I was worthless
He pushed me into walls
And then my crown fell off again and now I want to know what has happened to him
Has he changed his ways or is he still the same?
I hope he ends up where he belongs, with no one but himself to blame.
