You've always been the p r e t t y one, haven't you?
The one with shimmershine hair and a sparkle smile?
But that's never really been you
At least, not as far as he's concerned
Because he's always been the i d o l
With that sunshine smile and rainbow hair
He could get any girl in the school
So why should he s e t t l e for y o u?
You're just the girl who h i d e s behind her books
Heroines and princesses and adventures
But, see, they're all f i c t i o n a l
And, honey, we all know that fiction isn't real
So stop h i d i n g and start seeking
Because if you ever want to get him, you'll have to catch him first
And we all know he's f a s t
After all, he's eluded all the others, hasn't he?
(But then, maybe he didn't want to be found
Not by them, anyway)
So, fiction-girl, how are you going to get him?
None of the others could
What makes you so s p e c i a l?
Why should you be any different?
Get to s e e k i n g, fiction-girl
If you ever want your fairytale ending
To s t o p being just fiction
(Because we all know he's waiting for you)

Okay, how was it? My first attempt at freeverse. I don't usually do poetry, but I just got the sudden urge to try it… Anyways, I might continue this… make it a freeverse series, of sorts. Tell me what you think!
