Once apon a time darling;; was along time ago. A family so meant to be, broken and cut in half. Daddy changed with the responsibilities of being a father. But babe, maybe changed isn't the right word. Mommy doesn't like the image of a perfect marriage gone wrong, sweety.
Fairy tales aren't true, don't let Disney trick you, it will all fall apart eventually, and forever doesn't exist.
Don't let the books trick you into believing love exists;; It's only lust, as an excuse to have sex. Broken heart? Yeah I'd say there real, but only an extreme feeling of missing someone. Wanting them, needing them, falling apart without them. Baby, baby, baby, don't cry. One day you too will fall into lust, and when its all over, then you can cry.

the words you have penned here almost cut through the screen as they are razor sharp and raw. deep expression, would flow better in a different format, despite that this is wonderfully expressed.
