Fairy Tale Fog

Fairy tales, true or false? Mostly portrayed as

"Everything i've ever wanted, granted, the impossible, happened, happily ever afters are a thing of the past." 

Is anybody home? Is this a dream in which i'm living.

Am I the before or after version of Cinderella?

I wait... think... wait...  

 

My foggy mind clears

This "fairy tale" everyone seeks and dreams, is gone.

Time and false desires formed

seeking the unwanted, the surreal

Taught to want those things from idolized characters. 

 

The fog now lurks waiting to enter the mind of a vulnerable child
