Once Upon a Time,

A Princess lived in a Tower

She was Taught by her parents

A Prince would rescue her someday

Being an Obedient Princess,

she waited

and waited

Until One Day

She couldn't wait anymore

And Jumped

Her Body hit the Ocean

Like a bag of bricks

The Princess had finally found her Prince:

Death
