We all know the classic story of a girl who lost her glass slipper running away from her dreams, and racing back to her sad reality of being a peasant maid for her own step-mother and step-sisters, the only family she has left.  Yes, this is a story based on none other than the character of Cinderella.  However...this rendition of telling the tale is quite different.  This quick-read is all written in the form of haikus; a form of poetry that is written in a 5/7/5 syllable count. In this story, you learn about the lives these characters really lived behind the scenes of the happily ever after that we all know to be.  You'll discover rich amounts of character development from minor characters and learn major mic-drops about the major characters.  I hope you enjoy reading and visualizing the lives of various characters and what they may have been thinking throughout this story! I give you...The Story Behind the Slipper... :)

*I did not create or invent this princess who we all know and love and who has been around for generations.  
*I merely wanted to write a rendition of this story in the form of haikus only and I wanted to portray this amazing story in different perspectives of different characters.
*Thank you for understanding and I hope whoever reads this enjoys it to the fullest! :)

Thoughts of a Juvenile  by SoniyaKale

Words are sharper than knife they say. Yes it is true. Some perfectly moulded good words can both make and break a heart easily. A poem is a group of such perfectly moulded words given wings to fly. They fly through the mind and heart easily. A hobby is an activity we do to express ourselves, our beliefs and our thinking. For example through drawing, dancing, singing, etcetera. Writing a poem is one of such hobbies. Here words are used. These words and messages are far more twisted. A poem hits the mind, a good poem hits the heart. Thoughts Of A Juvenile is just a collection of my poems.I started writing poems when I was 8. I may not be a great writer. But yeah I write to express. There have been times for me like many other teenagers where I thought I was lost and helpless. There have been good times too. I'm standing on the edge of teenage now, telling you that you can survive this. You can survive everything. All you need is to find your strengths. There are sad nights and then there are mornings full of opportunities. Don't give up. I'm here and I'll always be here. Whenever you feel down just remind yourself "Be stupid". Go out in public and the eat the food you like alone, ask out your crush, flirt like there's no one watching, dance like a ghost has possessed your body, prank people, have a little chat with the nerds you know. Surviving is an art not many can master. Be a Master. There are mistakes in this book and I tried my best to correct them. But couldn't correct them all. I would really love to receive reviews and criticism. Vote if you like it. Comment your views. And follow for more poems. Add it to your reading list or library.

"Ah your majesty, I guess you might be wondering why I am here to torture the hell out of you right? It is all simple, I am here for nothing but to seek revenge. Do you remember that little girl from the neighboring kingdom? The one who you 'murdered'? Yeah her, guess what? She's not dead, neither is her mother, but her father on the other hand, wasn't spared from your sword. With it slicing through his intestines and I watching it on my mother's back. "Do you know how that affects a child? Seeing their precious father being murdered right in front of her eyes. You thought that you buried us six feet underground. Well jokes on you. Those were dummies that my mother created to fool you. We buried my father in a funeral only of us two," she said wiping away a stray tear, "You know, it is always said, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth ... and a life for a life." She tightened her grip on the king's throat and he groaned out loud in pain. The bones on his backbone cracked slowly under the immense force. Daryl had seen the whole thing. From what she had said, she had every right to take his father's life away, but, he didn't want her to have any blood in her hands. "Tatyana! Please don't kill my father. I know you have every reason to, but please, don't kill him." He broke the silence that had surrounded the room with his plea. Tatyana threw a glance at him and her heart ached at the sight of him like that. She had come all this way, what was left was just to snap his neck, and all would be over. Will she do it? Find out by reading Hidden Princess! Never leave the journey they will go through and know how the story ends. Remember, its not the happy ending that matters, but the tribulations one may go through in order to obtain it. Cover credits go to @omnikinetic. If you want an awesome cover, go to her cover shop.😊

Please don't read this, I wrote it in middle school and it's really bad. I just don't want to delete it because some people might get mad at me ;-; Maybe someday I will rewrite it. "What kind of fairytale is this? Where's the happy ending?" The little girl, approximately 7 years old, asked her mother. "That's what I wanted to teach you May, you should know now, that life isn't always going to have a good end. Bad things are going to happen, and if you play them off and ignore them, it will only worsen," May's mother explained. May nodded slowly. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Once upon a time, is how most fairytales start. Then, they end with a happily ever after. But not this story... There once was a prince, who fell in love with a girl. But she wasn't a princess. She was the hand maiden of a nobleman's daughter, who had eyes for the young prince. The prince and girl fell in love, but couldn't be together, for the nobleman's daughter grew jealous when she found out, and ordered them to be killed. This story was called "The Lover's Curse." As it passed down, generation through generation, it became known as only a legend, a myth. But it was true. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It's up to May and Drew to break the hold destiny has on them, to fight for their own way. Will they live their happily ever after, or die trying? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Wow! This story was such an adventure for me. You can really tell the difference in my writing as time went on XD. I want to thank everyone who stuck with me through this story and supported me with their votes and sweet comments! I look forward to the next project!! YouDontKnowShipping
