The Never of The Happily Forever


Once upon a time there was a world full of laughter,

That dreamed only happy thoughts that came with happily ever afters.

People cheered and people shouted about the great that was to come,

until the little black princess came from under the snow.

They praised that old white surface she once had, 

but when her true colors showed people were in awe.

They could not believe that the person who was supreme didn't look like the majority of the most poplar people.

How could so much change so quickly?

The only thing that changed was her skin.

Her words were the same and ideals even more firm.

Why do people hate term that comes with burns?

Yes I mean black, no time to sugar coat it.

She remains supreme but her fans aren't as devoted.

Why give up because she doesn't look like you?

What were you taught and do you pass it along?

She loves her people the same cause it is in her heart to do so.

So no matter whether you princess is covered in snow or gold,

please love them the same because their message still needs to be told.
