Realistic Fairytales
Fairytales are for princesses,
Who thrive through beauty,
Who search for Prince Charming
Who need not worry about their brain,
Only their body.
Fairytales are for evil creatures,
Who threaten families,
Who poison innocents,
Who kill,
And yet the only moral, in the end,
Is that beauty.
Reality is for women and men,
Who work for what they want,
Who train their brains for an uphill battle,
Who save those families,
Those innocents.
Reality is for children,
Who learn from mistakes,
Who dream for the better,
Who climb the tallest trees,
Just to accomplish something today.
Reality is for the strong,
Who know what they want,
Who take it,
Who make the world,
A little bit more like the end of a long adventure book,
Not a fairytale.
