    Fairytales

    Happiness is all a fairytale.
    A bunch of sugar, and spice, and puppy dog tails.
    A book that makes you sigh with relish,
    a bunch of lies the media tells us,
    just so we will buy into all that they sell us.
    Romance and even comedies,
    nobody lives the happy endings they sell you in these.
    They teach us early on what to want,what to hope for,
    then life throws the the lock on every door,
    one closes and nothing more.....
    Now your fairytale is a cold reality
    the reality is that life is unfair.
    And now you are left unprepared,
    how do you deal with a life full of empty promises,
    glass slippers that don't fit and now a life of destitution because of it?
    Realization that your dreams will never happen,
    that they are just fantasies in another fairytale.
    and you are just another Cinderella
    in a story that they will never tell.
