Listening To My Heart - Poetry/Lyrics

Poem 53 {I Don't Believe}

I'm sitting here amazed at how naive I was to believe in princesses and fairy tales.

Only now am I learning that all it is is ripping out hearts and destroying dreams.

I have come to the stage where I don't believe,

Were everything hurts and I don't want to let anyone else in.

All I wanted was your smile and love,

The blanket of protection you used to offer so many times before.

Instead you stopped being my white knight and became my demon,

My hunter, my nightmare.

You left me out there

Leaving me cursing at my imagination for stabbing me in the back.

So here I stand, crying and tormenting myself

With all my past hopes and dreams, that only haunt me now.

I stand out on this hill with the sun setting behind me.

But unlike the movies and books I'm alone and I have been destroyed.

As you can realise there are no such things as fairytales.

Cause all that takes place in life is absence and pain,

Cause your prince charming is walking off into the sunset without you.
