Nightmare

Part XXI

What could I possibly have done to deserve all of this

heartache

To be denied my family for my whole life Then to discover their existence only to find out that

my parents are dead

And that my sister's life is in dager

Then on top of all that to fall in love with a wonderful

man

To have him fall in love with me

And to be kept apart by protocol

How ironic to have found evertything I've ever dreamed

of

Only, once again, to be denied it
