Little miss prima donna
No power in her hands
Begging for the life she led
Once Upon a Time so grand

Naked hand with fingers bare
Baubles no longer define
A kingdom filled with memories there
Once Upon a Time divine

An empty spirit weighs her down
Pride now filled with chagrin
Her name no longer is renowned
A Once Upon a Time has-been

Ever a woman of wealth and means
Now lying on the bed she’s made
No tiara for this fairy tale queen
Her Once Upon a Time betrayed
