Fairytales

When I was a child I firmly believed

That tooth fairies did take my teeth,

I would carefully raise my pillow

And place them gently underneath.

***

I also believed way back then

That Peter Pan and Wendy could fly,

Then once a year if I’d been good

Santa Claus would glide across the sky.

***

But my most magical fairytale

Began one April starry night,

My imaginary Prince come to life

And met his own Snow White.

***

My life was dull and sleepy

But with your kisses I awoke,

You lavished me with words of love

And I believed every word you spoke.

***

As you can see I still believed in fairytales

Believed in dreams and happy endings,

I was sure I’d find my very own Prince

Only to find that he was pretending.

***

Cheating and conniving minds can seem

Believable and honest behind loving eyes,

If I had only learnt way back then

That fairytales are the ultimate lies.
