Royalty
For a while, she lived in a castle, with great turrets and walls of alabaster. She was a princess, and that was her world. Her only friend was the cold stone. Her only enemy was the deafening silence. All was still.
Two knights came, and took her castle apart, stone by stone, brick by brick. At first, she just watched, as they carried away her world and threw it into the infinite ocean. Then, trembling, she took a brick herself.
She still dreams of how small her hands were.
Thus, the castle crumbled. But she's still a Princess to them.
