Despite all the trying to forget, the trying to let it go,
It was hard not let the slight annoyances show.
A wish came true. A dream fulfilled. A fairy tale it's not.
Despite the fact that it was a bullseye when the arrow was finally shot.
It's probably all lies, no matter what is said.
Among the pretty pictures, sad visions filled her head.
She tried and tried but was never given what she sought
Though in her head she knew she should be happy for what she got.
For a little while she could pretend it was alright
But he always shattered the illusion when he reminded her of her plight.
Thick tendrils of hair curled over the soft cream carpet that lined the room. It was littered with books and pens, crumpled papers piled up in a bin and poured over the edge. She laid face up and dry-eyed staring blankly at her ceiling, her pale face stained with now dry lines composed of dried salt and makeup from her lashes that were now sticking together from the tears. A laptop was set atop a stack of thick text books and open to Pandora. She was sure that the online radio was simply mocking her now after a stream of love songs and depressing ballads, most of which she'd normally just skip over if she hadn't ran out of her allotted amount
