Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time,
Long, long ago....
There was this girl....

You see..
This girl wasn't anything special.
Warranted no special attention
And deserved absolutely nothing.

But one day....

Well.

Maybe it wasn't quite so long ago...

And that story doesn't have quite as happy an ending as it seems like it might.


You see...
That girl is me.

And try as I might, I rarely find the silver lining. I rarely see the bright side.

And why should I? I never get to have a happily ever after. I never get to just have a good day, week, year, lifetime, century, etc. etc. etc.


Le sigh.

Anyway.

I'm going to just listen to my Emilie Autumn and go on. Per usual.


Always,
Ophelia.


P.S., My darlings- Miss Lucy Had Some Leeches. Look it up.
