All the kings horses and
all the kings men,
couldnt put the princess
together again. They made
it worse and broke her heart
more, then she started to wonder,
would I ever be fixed?
Not so long after, came along
the poor peasant boy, who
made her heart all better
and it's been beating since.

For this poem I really don't know what inspired me. It just kind of came to my head and I wrote it down. Sometimes that's all it takes to write something you really like.
