Digital Cinderella
No Grand Ball or Gown
Cinderella now with a frown
Swipe right Instant Like
Swipe left Instant Dislike.
The alarm set for 12 a.m
Cinderella has to wake up then
Prince Charming awake now
Three dots on the screen
Waiting on someone who is typing
His emotions, or so you think
Cinderella eager now for him to reveal
The part she likes most, his heart.
Cinderella nodding off now
Waking up with a start
Typing in four dots, indicating we’ll see
End of discussion from me.
Morning dawns on Cinderella
Playing with five dots
Full of uncertainty, four walls of prison
Surrounds her completely.
Six dots, a signal of thoughts unspoken
A unsettled utterance for that somebody
Coming back to a single dot
Full Stop.
Carry on dancing Cinderella
In circles around a dot
This allows for keeping your eyes off clocks
And a ear out only for the Alarm.
