Real Life Is No Fairy Tale
My life is no fairy tale, it doesn’t start with once upon a time. I’m not a princess who appears frail, but whose strength hides like words in a mime.
I don’t live in a castle owned by a beast, and my wardrobe doesn’t have the ability to talk. My supper at night is not a princess’ feast, and I’m the only thing in my room that can walk.
There is no fairy godmother in my life, and the mice aren’t trying to make me a gown. My life hasn’t magically gotten rid of strife, I’m not married to the prince of the town.
The seven dwarves don’t live at my house, a mirror hasn’t ruled me fairest in the land. I don’t have forest friends, not even a mouse, who come to me to lend a helping hand.
My dad is not Triton, king of the sea, and I haven’t saved a prince from a wreck. This prince hasn’t searched everywhere for me, I’m not meant to marry him on a ship’s deck.
My life is no fairy tale, it doesn’t start with once upon a time. I’m not a princess who appears frail, but whose strength hides like words in a mime.
Yet, my life is still pretty good, not every aspect of it is full of gloom. There is still a sense of brotherhood, and not every day has the threat of doom.
My roof may not be a castle’s dome, but at least I’m not forced to live there. Just so my father can go home, I don’t have to live with a man that’s like a bear.
No, I don’t get to go to a ball, but I’m not treated like a slave. At midnight my joy doesn’t stall, and stepsisters don’t treat me like a knave.
Dwarves don’t reside in my house, but I’ve never had an apple poison me. An evil witch isn’t hating me like some do a mouse, and thanks to my nation I’m free.
True, I don’t have a king for a dad, however, I don’t have to worry about a sea-witch. I’m not trapped off land being oh so sad, nor has my life morphed as if someone pressed a switch.
My life doesn’t start with once upon a time, and it may not follow a positive trend. Yet, my life not being a fairy tale doesn’t seem a crime, even though happily ever after is not how it will end.
