Now and then I read over old love letters
you wrote to me when I was in jail,
and I remember how I fantasized
about the Cinderella fairy tale.

Now I wear those glass slippers
and I feel just like a queen,
living a peaceful life out here
in this country setting so serene.
How could I have ever known
a love I'd own, then unforeseen
written on the pages of those letters
and snugged within the lines between?

Could it be some wayward dream?

Oh, so very lovely, poignant.. I am so happy that your glass slippers still fit!  I like a joyful ending to a storybook...
