happily ever after
i dont know what it is that causes you to be so inconsiderate
so blinded by this shield you call passion
that you fail to see what is reality, and what is real love
why cant you see that what you have in front of you is special
and not what you put on
why cant love be more than lust and beauty to you
it’s turned into one big damn game
time isnt something that stands still
not anymore, life’s not a fairy tale unless you believe
in its magic and follow it’s rules
and though the helpless princess
gets saved by the dashing prince and they live
happily ever after
live doesn’t work that way
you have to make your own fairy tale
but your just too damned amused with the fairy
you fail to see the end
love is not a toy for you to play with
people are not pawns
in fairy tales people were real
once upon a time at least

WOAH!
Nice, very very very very very very nice! impressed the hell out of me. The ending, shear genius. I loved this one. One of my favs by you, if not my fav. Very well written!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Yes, brilliant! What a message here!
I know that I often live my own life as though it were some fairy tale... childish it is, I know.
People are real, they are not works of fiction.
I know a few people who should read this poem, and before doing so myself, I was one of them.
Thank you very much for allowing me this.

GREAT message here. Wonderful work. Just be careful about its (posessive) vs. it's (contraction of it is)...just a pet peeve!

Wow, an oldie! But this is a very good piece. Thanks, DYME, for bringing this one back up to page 1. This is an awesome poem. I love the message. Very nice work.
