A Fairytale

Fairy tales are but lies

That which we come to despise

For there is no happy ending

Just a heart that needs mending

There is no prince charming

Wake up my darling

Snow White shall die alone

Cinderella will always be condoned

No white horse shall take you away

The tower is where Rappunzel will stay

The poisoned apple will kill us all

Lay down to die, right where we fall

Sleeping Beauty shall never awaken

The dragon’s life will never taken

The prince will not come to the rescue

An unfinished list of good deeds to do

Think not that we shall awaken to a kiss

It seems these realities have gone amiss

The knight in shining armor is but a dream

Life is not a fairy tale it would seam
