No more right?

Every night she stepped out in the breezy night. 

Covered from top to bottom in haze. 

Just to get the taste of the life, she always dreamt of  

She was emotional and fragile. 

Waiting for a magical regime

Then one day she stopped going out

Likely her dreams ended 

She was given a sword to fight the world 

Of the cruel monsters she had never heard

She thought it was her right 

They appreciated her for the fight. 

But 

Reality was no more than a plight. 

She kept fighting the terror, bold and brave 

But forgot to kill the ones inside  who shared sins that were grave

Then one day a knight in shining armour appeared 

She thought it was splendid to have him near

Like the sturdy books of fairytale say. 

She eagerly waited for him to take the bait. 

But he did nothing but played 

Grabbed her sword and faked 

Took her out again 

But left in the rain 

Made her a princess of one night 

For shame. 

And the world hissed and took away her sword

No more a shiny armour, no more rewards

And the world outside she admired once turned into hell

The breeze took her away into the bloody past, the night she had yelled. 

They asked her to give up her fight. 

She was again inside, this time they said she was no more bold and no more right.
