The Audrey Hepburn of her generation
She lives in the city that says “hello”
With her “maybe later” parents,
always away

She sits in her room,
waiting and wishing

someone will come to save her
Her mind dances as she turns to the real life TV set,
The window,
where the moonlight seeps in
She thinks of the boy with a face like Brad Pitt
Soft straw colored hair swept to the side of his face
The knight in shining armor she longs to hear from

the city now has a sinister smile and a booming voice.


His face turns into a monster




The city says goodbye.
