Fairy Tale Endings

By sax angel

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In all the many fairy tales, as little girls we're told how frogs turn into princes and leprechauns bring gold. The Beast is not a beast at all, but rather kind and good. The ending's always happy and the princess understood. Wish on stars and dream you dreams. You'll get your wish or so it seems..... But as the years go swiftly by, we learn that all this was a lie. There are no brave and valiant knights. The stars above are twinkling lights. A beast is just a beast and a frog remains a frog try as you may to give his royal mind a jog. In a search for love so rare and true, the price Cind paid was just a shoe. There is no godmother to save your day, yourself  is now the price you pay.
