Cinderella, Cinderella <br />She stands in a corner, dusting cobwebs off the ceiling <br />Smiling despite her misery <br />Knowing that tomorrow she'll just have to work even harder <br />I wonder what it must be like to be so utterly alone? <br />Living in a house with evil stepsisters <br />And an evil stepmother <br />Who mock her and spit at her feet <br />Who make her life hardly even worth living <br />In a way I guess we all have our evil stepsisters <br />Sometimes we can get through <br />But sometimes they get the better of us <br />Cinderella <br />Was so kind, so giving <br />Even though she knew her stepsisters hated her <br />She would've done anything for them <br />But you know, in real life <br />Cinderella wouldn't have gotten the prince <br />Because life isn't like a fairy tale <br />No matter how much we want it to be <br />Life can drag you down sometimes <br />And you don't have little mouse friends <br />To sew pretty dresses <br />For you to wear to the ball <br />Still, though, even if life wants to kick you <br />I think that <br />If I was Cinderella <br />I would have taken that broom <br />And smashed my stepmom's face in<br /><br />Akara K.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cinderella-9/
