Fairy Tales
Now Son, listen up
Fairy tales are not true
The stories are made to teach
But what is learned is up to you
Now Father, hear me out
One day I’ll be a brave knight
Save the damsel in distress
And always win the epic fight
Now Daughter, pay attention
Princes are hard to find
And once you do be warned
For they aren’t often kind
Now Mother, have faith in me
No matter how beastly he maybe
My love will change him in time
My heart will mend his just you see
Now children, I hope you realize
We once believed as you do
For years we loved, loss, and felt pain
Till we found each other and made both of you
Now Parents, I hope you truly know
We will face our own trials one day
Discover the truth on our own
For we need to live life our way.

fairy tales are stories,
you can make believe, you can ignore, nothing less or more.
Glad to see you share.
I’m twenty-seven, and still believe in fairy tales. Once a while, a prince does come along. Nicely written!
