My fairy tale is shattered and broken

Leaving me unbelievingly bare.

Naked and exposed.

I feel no love there.

Where everything is fake.

Just like everything I see.

And everything I am.

How long 'till everything breaks?

Why couldn't I see it sooner?

And realize it years ago.

I could have died when it came to me.

Everything isn't how it used to be.

I'd watch through innocent eyes

As they tried to compromise.

I didn't understand it.

But now I know.

What can I do?

Being pulled both ways

Seconds turn to days.

I'm so confused.

Not abused or misused.

But drowning in a sea of misconception.

Pretending to see,what isn’t there.

I'm feeling my heart tear.

I feel no love anymore.

Lying on the carpeted floor.

I look up and the heated words exchange.

I just watch in stuptified awe.

Words fly and tempers rise.

Pain evident in their. Eyes.

They Tell me each others wrongs

So I can try make it right again.

Many years go by,

four almost in fact.

That words and fists are gonna fly.

Their love was just an act.

My fairy tale is shattered and broken

Leaving me unbelievingly bare.

Naked and exposed.

I feel no love….here…
