Cinderella

Fire consumed her
Taunting her
Challenging her
Trying to burn her

She finally felt it inside
The burn of defeat
The burn of loss
The burn of jealousy

Was that an end?
Or was it a start?

What will she do now?
Sing with the angels
The song of the phoenix?
Or die as a mortal?

She came from a family of mortals
Who dreamed of being angels
In a mortal way

She knew the way that wasn't
Will she find it?
Will she reach?
Or will she wither in her own cinders..
