Universe's Newest Queen

Title is kinda corny I know...but it's because of a saying a character says in one of my favorite books.

I'm the Universe's newest queen,
I must make sure only perfection is seen.
They'd never love the actual me,
they only love what they think they see.

Who cares that my eyes are empty holes,
or that my shoes are worn down to their very soles.
Who cares if I never wanted this calling,
or that it takes everything I have to keep my tears from falling.
Who cares if I want to be set free,
or that I hate being on display for all to see.
I'm the Universe's newest queen,
no one else understands what exactly that means.

So with a smile on my face,
and all possible grace,
I will take my unwanted right,
and try to listen to everyone's plight.
Because as much as I'd like someone to intervene,
sadly, I'm the universe's newest queen.

I liked it. It sounded kind of like an epilogue for a story.

Sucks? I love it. It's very good. It reminds me of stories and of songs that I've read/heard. It's a good write and I'm sure I'll read it often.
