There was once a princess
who began to fade away little by little,
washing away in her own tears.

Everyday, the birds brought her gifts,
hoping to dry her eyes.
But eventually, her tears washed away even her face
and they could no longer remember what she had looked like

Finally they asked,
‘what is it that you need from us, princess?’

she answered,
‘for someone to listen to my story’

and then she disappeared.
