Fairy Tales

So that’s it
Over, finished
No excuse
No apology
No words to explain
Why this is ending
Life goes on
Full of lies
Full of clichés
Meaningless meetings
Look into my eyes
Tell me you’re not surprised
Too many hopes
Too many dreams
Not enough reality
You should know better
These things never last
Happy endings only exist
In childish fairy tales
Stop dreaming
Stop hoping
Accept disappointment
Welcome to the real world

    I like how you presented the idea of how we always expect life to be full of fairy tale happy endings. Like I always say, actors have makeup. Great job!

    This is a good poem. Better word choice could have been used though...But I like it. And it is true; happy endings do only exist in Fairy Tales...

    Good luck in the contest!

    It's a real harsh blow when it's the end of something and it makes everything seem worse, I know that. But also yes, we have to be realistic. Life isn't a fairytale and it's not all happy endings. Having said that, there are some beautiful moments you can capture in life too. It's just trying to put that in prospective, but it's hard when our heart is breaking.

    This is a marvelous poem and well-written too, but me I'm a hopeless romantic therefore I stand-by your average fairy tale. This world maybe harsh and it maybe cruel, but never will it erase what's etched in my heart. Awesome job with this and good luck to you in this contests.
