The Little PrincessA Poem by Shayla Sayera spinoff of the little prince...there is a child whose eyes hold years far more than her own few there is a child whose tears are wept for the sin of the ageless the creation of the ultimate scapegoat ...her. there is a child who calls out but the monsters she fears do not reside beneath the bed but rather are lodged within her mind as she hides beneath the covers in hope of concealing her torment for there is no one who would understand. no one to believe or comfort her there is a child alone on a planet whose sole other occupant is a sunflower that wilts and dies for half the year-- leaving her with no one. there is a child a little princess who bears her lonliness with a teary smile as she practices dance moves no one taught her for there is no rhythm as she sways beneath a darkened sky... only the stars bear witness. © 2011 Shayla SayerReviews
