She was conventionally pretty
Born with looks to catch eyes
And a head made for a crownBut fate had her own plans
To teach her all of the hurt
Which she kept stained on her hands
Because it was her actions and error
That reflected the opposite
Of that in the mirrorAll their boasting words
Taught her not to be kind
To take what she wants
No matter the price
She would harm with her words
And play all her cards
Until all that was left
Was to fold her own deckSo although her body was meant
For ballgowns and jewels
Fate gave her no castle
Nor gave her the riches
Fate gave her no chance
Of Prince Charming's kissesBefore it all crumbles
Before all hope is lost
Fate will teach her to be humble
To step off her high horseShe was conventionally pretty
Born with looks to catch eyes
She had yearned for the crown
If only she could
But now she yearns only
To be understood__________
A/N-This poem was written by my super duper talented friend, Ren afteriwokeup she just started a new poetry book and it's hecking amazing, so give her some love 💕
Also I'm super proud of how well the gif goes with this. This is from Yona of the Dawn. Yona is a princess who is spoiled and knows nothing of her kingdom until fate teaches her about the real world. Also red is supposed to be the color of fate.
