Far From A Fairy Tale

You dream us
A beautiful life
Worthy of fairy tale status
You, a humble King
I... your Queen
But once alone
You- I
In our lonely,cold castle
Nothing's farther from
Reality

ugh. hard end...when dreams and reality dont match...and makes one wonder just what gets in the way of it...
ReplyDeletePeople sometimes see what they want to see... not what really is. Thanks Brian for taking the time to stop by!
DeleteAh, I think there are a lot of lives like this....from the outside we only see the 'castle,' but inside the castle there is an empty shell!
ReplyDeleteOh this one does have a hard ending. So sad when the castle is but a shell.
ReplyDeleteYes, sometimes looks can be deceiving
ReplyDeleteI love this poem... It makes me want to read more.
ReplyDeleteI just wonder... when dream and reality clash, which is primarily to blame? Love this.
ReplyDeleteOh, make believe meets reality! Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, unfortunately, this is the reality and there isn't a fairy tale ending. I like how you captured so much feeling in your poem.
ReplyDeleteOh... love this sad poem. Well done!
