A fantasy, a fairytale
a small childs dream.
Dreams of hope and happiness,
the kind we all have seen.

A prince on a white horse,
come to save the day.
True loves first kiss.
Then the perfect wedding day.

A unicorn with wings,
a magic carpet you can fly.
The only way to reach,
that castle in the sky.

Riches beyond belief.
People, at your every call.
Fancy clothes, expensive cars,
and huge romantic balls.

But silly childhood fantasies,
that's all they ever are.
No castles, no unicorns,
butlers, maids, or cars.

No one thinks to tell you,
that your dreams will never be.
That you'll work your whole damn life,
just to make ends meet.

Mysterious is the shadow, walking down the path of light

It's a life like this that makes us search for the 'little' pleasures in life.

I just wanted to say thank you. I havn't posted anything in 3 years, and I wasn't sure if anyone would like this one, I'm still not sure if I do. So thank you for you positive thoughts.
