Fairy Tales Lie
Once Upon a Time,
all the way back to first grade,
we promised to stay princesses
for our whole lives.
We would marry a prince,
get our true loves kiss
but we didn't know what lies could slip
out of our true loves lips
We fell in love with their eyes
because thats how we thought
we could know for sure
We fell in love with their voices
because we thought
we would be able to hear their lies
but sweet voices
are only
false safety
You thought you owned our kingdom
the one we promised to share
You turned around
and gave it away
to the orange haired prince
who turned out to be
just another villain
Although I'm sure you weren't surprised
But I found my prince
and we left you behind
to live our own happily ever after
with no villain
or you
around
