Interrupt the World

If they were in the same room, could she tell?
Would she warn or interrupt the whole world
with a sordid story of her own? How
would they respond to the heartache of it?

Her stories are not unlike the others;
the similarities may startle some.
Susceptible to little boy charming,
attraction to prince oh-so-disarming.

She will be quiet, not knowing at all
who she is, how she loves, and why she can’t
see through the façade, past the imagery;
perhaps it’s the fear that for once he’s real.

She stood in that circle of light herself
and never thought it wasn’t forever.
