“My Fairy Tale”
Leave a commentApril 6, 2013 by mycountryisthewholeworld
I wrote a fairy tale poem when I was younger after a particular painful experience. I submitted it to a poetry website but it was politely rejected:
I loved you
With every fiber in me
Each cell was woven
Honestly
It was all there for the taking
Kisses and words and love
The stuff that fairy tales
Spin
That shit
You buy
To wear in hope
And we go to the movies
To see
But nobody is
Watching This
We are not
‘Together’
That word isn’t used
Was never used
In our joint lives
We weren’t really even together
Except in moments
(More for you)
(I in the constant Hope. That was all)
We were
Undeserving of a real title
Or real story to tell
And we will never
Be together
For that final
Happy Ending
In a story
That never even existed
But carried just the same amount of Love
As if it did
(The End)
