Fairytales

by Sara   Mar 2, 2007


Once upon a time
Always ends with happily ever after
But in the stories, what comes next?
Did Cinderella and her prince,
Always live happily ever after?
A little girls dream, to grow up
Find her prince and live happily, like in the stories
But while trying to get there
She finds that it is not anything like a fairytale
Meeting new faces and seeing new places
Each giving the idea
That happiness will never be achieved
She lives now, for one day at a time
Not for a whole picture
That once innocent little girl
Will do anything to be temporarily happy
From a distance she looks fine
But step a little closer, take a better look
You will find the real truth
The scars that line her arms tell a certain story
Of pain and sadness
Of a girl who cries herself to sleep
In the life that has betrayed her
Time and time again, shes lost her hope
For the fairytale ending she once sought
Someday she will write her story with...
And they lived happily ever after
But for now the scars, control and tell her story...
