The elephant in the room

AfairlyUselessFairy

Trust 

Such a clumsy word

Clumsy me 

To trip over my tongue 

Fall face flat 

Into a place I no longer belong 

Because here the skies are pink 

My hair bleach blonde 

A person I used to be 

Singing the same old songs 

Saying stupid girl 

How could you be so wrong

    A really engaging piece which I enjoyed reading. Very bravely you've asked for criticism to help improve your work and there is little I can offer but if you'd like me to make a few minor suggestions just let me know and I'll send you a PM.
