Life is a fairy tale
My knight will never fail
Happy ever afters
Togethers, forevers

Life is a tragedy
It is not comedy
Deaths and good byes to you
I love yous are not true

The author's comments:
This is to show that life is not always dark and gloomy but it as well cannot always make you do the happy dance. If the colors have black and white and gray, life has dark and gloomy and happy and smiling.

Great idea for your poem! I thought that it could have been longer, but that's me. It sounds like something Taylor Swift would say.
