Little girls dream, <br />foolish dreams, <br />dreams that come, <br />from fairytales. <br /> <br />Motion pictures, <br />of Cinderella, <br />play upon their innocence. <br /> <br />Little girls dream, <br />of meeting, <br />their Prince Charming. <br /> <br />They dream of, <br />fairytale weddings, <br />and happily ever after. <br /> <br />Fairytale dreams, <br />of never ending happiness, <br />for some will never exist, <br />for life isn't a fairytale. <br /> <br />Fairytales don't tell, <br />of how you can love someone, <br />with all your heart, <br />and they don't love you back. <br /> <br />Fairytales don't tell, <br />of those who have, <br />committed suicide, <br />over lost love. <br /> <br />Fairytales don't tell, <br />how sometimes, <br />the ones who are supposed to love you, <br />take their fists and hit you. <br /> <br />Fairytales don't tell, <br />how sometimes, <br />the ones who are supposed to love you, <br />emotionally abuse you, <br />scarring your soul. <br /> <br />Life isn't a fairytale.<br /><br />Deborah Cormier<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/foolish-dreams/
