➸ u n l i k e f a i r y t a l e s

But you see darling
Life?
It's not like the fairy tales
I used to tell you

Prince's don't come up to your doorstep with a glass shoe
Instead electricity bills, and rent papers do,

You don't find magic and scavenge for adventure,
Instead you find a job and work to fill your latest expenditure

You don't find love at first sight,
Instead, you get your heart broken overnight

You don't find a happily ever after,
Instead, you'll always have regrets that'll keep bothering you forever.

So I ask for your forgiveness my dear,
I am sorry
For telling you these lies

But at least you now know
How life really is
