I don’t particularly give my characters
happy endings,
but I do wish
for the happy endings
of others’ characters.
I guess I still believe in fairytales
and blue dresses in threads of thin air—
the whole package deal.
And I realise that’s not a bad thing.
You see, I’ve been trying to connect
the me now
to the girl who saw everything to be nice.
That’s the word. Nice.
Simplified. Like the points
in a connect-the-dots book.
And I’ve found her. Me.
But not exactly.
It’s more that I unearthed
half of a fraction of myself
that wasn’t entirely forgotten,
and ended up halfway buried.
Yeah.
I liked The Little Mermaid the best.
