When she fell, she fell apart. 
          Cracked her bones on the pavement she once decorated 
          as a child with sidewalk chalk 
          When she crashed, her clothes disintegrated and blew away 
          with the winds that took all of her fair-weather friends.
          
          When she looked around, her skin was spattered with ink 
          forming the words of a thousand voices 
          Echoes she heard even in her sleep: 
          "Whatever you say, it is not right." 
          "Whatever you do, it is not enough." 
          "Your kindness is fake." 
          "Your pain is manipulative."
          
          When she lay there on the ground, 
          She dreamed of time machines and revenge 
          and a love that was really something, 
          Not just the idea of something.
          
          When she finally rose, she rose slowly 
          Avoiding old haunts and sidestepping shiny pennies 
          Wary of phone calls and promises, 
          Charmers, dandies and get-love-quick-schemes
          
          When she stood, she stood with a desolate knowingness 
          Waded out into the dark, wild ocean up to her neck 
          Bathed in her brokenness 
          Said a prayer of gratitude for each chink in the armor 
          she never knew she needed 
          Standing broad-shouldered next to her 
          was a love that was really something, 
          not just the idea of something.
          
          When she turned to go home, 
          She heard the echoes of new words 
          "May your heart remain breakable 
          But never by the same hand twice" 
          And even louder: 
          "without your past, 
          you could never have arrived- 
          so wondrously and brutally, 
          By design or some violent, exquisite happenstance 
          ... here."
          
          And in the death of her reputation, 
          She felt truly alive.

As part of me respecting Jack and Signe I'm sorry to say that I have decided to finally end my Little Princess book.Thank you all for thr reads, votes and comments over the past 2 years. Thank you for the support and I really hope you'll love and support each other especially Jack and Signe and I hope you all understand why I'm doing this.Please don't go out there and blame each other why they broke up. I told you once it's not our fault and no one should blame each other why they broke up. It's both of their decisions.
