Fairy Tale {Reality}

Fairy Tale {Reality}

A Poem by Kayla K

"It's the stories they told us when we were younger, about life and love. How our happiness lies in the hands of another, who'd fly in on the wings of a dove. Well that's the way the fairy tale goes, boy meets girl and they wed with roses. But that's not the way that it seems to be. And I'm pissed that they lied to me." Jay Brannan, Ever After Happily (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OuGzQS6e-M)


Sleeping Beauty slumber
Cinderella slippers
Snow White and a mirror
 Little Mermaid flippers

Fairy tale stories
Happy for eternity
Riding into sunsets
A princess, cowboys carry

Wishes always come true
Dreaming is all we need
Just stay positive,
for humans never bleed

{Sleeping Beauty sleeps,
around with all the men
Cinderella with tequila,
 getting drunk again.
Snow White's mirror,
shows insecure lies.
And Ariel is over there
getting one of her highs}

{Happiness is not forever
Cowboys and princesses
have fights and leave,
adding to divorces}

{Wishes are only wishes
if you make them true.
Positivity can be tough.
Dreams, you must pursue.}

Defy the words
of fairy tale reality.
Wish what you want
and shine brightly.
Stand amongst impostors
Search far and wide
for your own answers.

Maybe a little depressing? My opinion on fairy tales is not completely stated here, but nonetheless it's a few different views on them.

A very strong message to everyone. I do love fairytales and the thought of happily ever after, but we also have to understand that we have to strive for what we actually believe in and not to believe on the things around us, but in ourselves. I really liked this poem, it may have been a bit depressing, but that's how we different point of views on them. Excellent write :)
