Once upon a time there was a Princess. She lived inside a prison. The prison was her mind. She tortured herself and she was all alone. One day a handsome Prince came and rescued her. He said everything she needed to hear and made her realize how special she was. But then the Prince took off his mask (because we all wear them) and the Princess, so surprised and utterly heartbroken by what lay underneath, wanted to forget everything. She didn't want to return to the prison and she certainly felt she couldn't tell herself all the uplifting, spellbreaking things the Prince told her. But in wanting to forget, she also just wanted to turn back time to when the masquerade was all she believed in. So she took a lot of pills because she wasn't quite sure where to go from there. She didn't want to die, just feel numb. You understand.
