I Saw the Movie Aladdin

I saw the new movie and loathed loving it so much I wrote a poem.

Any resemblance to persons or interactions real or imagined are coincidental.

Fairytale

Can’t you see?
You’ve rattled my cage with your kindness
Don’t you know?
I was becoming content with my blindness

Don’t talk to me of love and stuff
Don’t open locked door of never enough!

Can’t you see?
It is not mine to believe in
Not love, nor beauty, nor truth
So please stop sewing seeds of sweet make-believing

Don’t talk to me of love and more
My prison is self chosen and holds no door

Can’t you see?
I’m pacing my boards with raised heartbeat
Don’t you know?
That you will watch me die the moment I submit defeat

So please hush now with the ache of your words
Don’t stir my bones with poetry unheard

Won’t you believe me?
Don’t you know it is true?
My heart was burned to black
Not man-made into blue

But never stop whispering into the ashes
Until I am risen and worthy with the dawn of the passes

So you hate it because it stirs hope in you and makes you want love?
MayaHope · 41-45, F
Kind of maybe hated that I gushed at the fairytale romance? @Casheyane
Casheyane · 31-35, F
@MayaHope Ahh. Maybe the fact that you gushed means there's something there :) You can ignore it if you want. It is always up to you. But when the right moment comes and you do feel like the main character of a fairy tale, don't take the experience away from you. You deserve it. Happiness and all that disney crap.
MayaHope · 41-45, F
Yeah but it’s silly and not dark and depressing like me... @Casheyane
Casheyane · 31-35, F
@MayaHope You know the only way you can appreciate light is if you've seen dark. :) You can't truly love the light if you haven't experienced darkness.

Your dark and depressing self may just be what someone out there needs. And maybe he could end up the person that can finally make you want light.
MayaHope · 41-45, F
Or maybe I can hide in a forest and watch the light scatter from the canopy of trees and be content? @Casheyane
Casheyane · 31-35, F
@MayaHope You can do that. No one's stopping you. :)
Just remember that Aurora was already locked up in a tower, so is Rapunzel, and those little buggers of Prince Charmings still ended up finding them anyway. haha
MayaHope · 41-45, F
Bloody Prince Charmings, you know I’m more of a donkey kind of girl... @Casheyane
Casheyane · 31-35, F
@MayaHope IKR? Haha. That frustration I can relate to. Sometimes it makes you curious if it's even worth kissing a frog. Capes and crowns and glamour, sometimes they can do with a fresh kick down to the enchanted lake. Maybe if they get turned into a clown, it can be fun haha. I'm not yet sure what kind of girl I am. Right now, maybe a princess hiding in fairy godmother's wand. :)
MayaHope · 41-45, F
Be a princess xxx@Casheyane
Casheyane · 31-35, F
@MayaHope I know I am :) BUt there are those petty moments when you'll hope a prince will do come to help you feel like it.

You know, you and I have different frustrations but I think we both understand what it means to be hurt and feel like missing out. Hang in there, will you? :)
MayaHope · 41-45, F
I’m hanging... @Casheyane
Casheyane · 31-35, F
@MayaHope Message me if you need a friend. You seem fun :)
MayaHope · 41-45, F
Aww thanks, what I need right now is to get on with my work! Thanks for sprinkling some rosiness 😌@Casheyane
