The Fairy Tale

Such a perfect fairytale
A boy and girl in lust
Until the mirror shatters
Showering the world in broken trust

The tree of Eden is dead
The apple rotted to its core
Sleeping Beauty's a decaying corpse
A kiss wont do it anymore

The seven dwarfs are broken men
Each with a sorrid past
The little mermaid drowned in tears
When she realised forever doesn't last

There's no such thing as a fairy tale
The genies lamp wont shine
There's no hope of a final kiss
Since you told me you're not mine

There's no screen that reads 'the end'
After a slow dance in the rain
Just the real world and a broken girl
Alone and filled with pain

There's no magic pill to bring it back
Just a bottle of whiskey for the pain
But as I drinks my potion down
My fairytale is real again...

  • I agree with you.Fairytales don't exist and finding happiness is difficult.I liked the imagery in here and everything was well written.The second stanza is my favorite.

  • Wow.....

    A kiss wont do it anymore"

    Awesomeness! great job!

  • Life is no Disney movie, that's for certain.... I liked the rhyme in the piece, since it added a little levity to an otherwise depressing write. There are a few grammatical/spelling issues, but they're easily fixed. Thanks for posting—hopefully inspiration will prompt you to write a lot more very soon.
