If she could,
she’d run off into the fields
to a place where no one would find her
She’d make sure to start afresh
leave all her pains behind
heal her wounds
Of broken promises
too many unbearable disappointments
her heart broken too many times
It could no longer bear the pain
too many shed tears
Been in denial for far too long
Thinking it would all take a better turn
But life was not the fairytale in the books she read
