there is no happily ever after
in this story book of tales
no princes charming on a white stallion
no 7 drafts to keep me safe
i don't have a fairy godmother
to wave a wand for me
no invitation to a ball
where a prince will fall for me
i'm not a evil sorcerers
and i'm not a wicked witch
but my fairy tale ending
in this book does not existed

I get it
I get what your saying and I feel the same way no happy endings as far as love is concerned for me....I'm through with it...great job! -
wonderful take on the picture,
i love the not so fairy tale theme.
i think drafts should be 7 dwarfs
i hope that someday you do find your fairytale

Love this! As we grow we realise life is not a fairy tale. Great stuff well done

This is a very facinating poem, and very simple in its writing and speech.
Truth about the real world, that is not like what we liked to read about as kids, its just life. Life just happens, and it is whatever that is.
Well done, and good luck

This was great! One thing though I was wondering... in your last line:"in this book does not existed" Did you mean exist? Sorry! Anyways this is wonderful. Does it ever truly exist? For I have not seen this yet either. Wonderfully written poem here. On true life. Thank you for sharing. In Love & Light... Blessed Be! ~~Iridessa MoonFlower~~

Your words Speak
Alive they be, in your own words your own life. I can't explain any better than the way you know why you wrote the way you did, but I see it. Using your own ingeniousity to intrigue others.

awww... that is such a sad and true poem.. I feel the same way.. I just changed my point of view.. I'm no longer looking for a prince charming.. just a best friend to share my life with... Great piece..

A very sad take! Life isn't a fairtale tho is it? I like where you took this!
"Princes" should be "Prince" throughout and L8 "were" should be "where"
Great take!
