Paper girl series (part five): Now I can be happy.



This is the final part of this write-up

I met someone new,
I met someone,
Exactly like me,
This person is so kind,
So warm and encouraging,
Never did I think,
Someone like this still existed,
This someone agreed
To build my paper town
With me,
To rebuild the walls
That got broken
In my former town
The buildings that were
Crushed to nothing,
I decided to re-build my paper town
And fill up the space
In my paper town
That made it look
And feel so empty

Finally, I would no longer
Hear the echoes of my voice
Finally I will have a companion
Someone dedicated to my course
Finally, someone that will tell me
I’m beautiful in the middle of the
Night when my hair is all tangled
And looks like a ball of paper
Ready for disposal.
Finally someone that will tell me
How sexy I am even though
Deep down I know I look like
A bulb of onion waiting to be
Sliced and cooked
Finally someone to put
The crown on my head
The paper crown
And finally make me
The queen of my paper town
And give me the right to
Send every unwanted person away
I finally fell in love with that person
Because this person is everything
I want and need.

I felt in love with myself.
Because I realized it was all I needed.  

So no longer call me “paperiette the paper girl
Call me “Paper Queen”
Because I have assumed that post
I assumed it when I decided to
Let go of the past.
Trust me, it’s the best decision I have ever made.
