A classic story, but with a Twist



Amidst a problem, of a princess.
Beauty's such that she can be independent

Tho the writer wrote
Thee the nonsense he created

What if there was a twist?
Alas, what if a prince didn't show up?

A cold bright princess
She learned to be independent

There was no one to save her
She learned to be independent

Tho when the prince arrived
Thee was done, the classic returned

But Oh! Rejection given by her
Prince surprised and heartbroken

Thus ends the story
But indeed with a twist
