My fairytale
One glance
One smile
Was all it took for these tears in my eyes
Forever was promised
Yet a goodbye was replied
The ‘Happily Ever After’ has gone astray
Love was a possibility that only equaled dismay
Girl meets boy…
Shouldn’t it have been love?
Wasn’t that conclusion a given, or was it just a false hope disguised as one?
We were the fairytale
The couple who were completely meant to be
But we lost the plot and are only left with our broken dreams…
Our beautiful dream, a nightmare instead?
Could it be that love is nothing but a word that people said?
You said we were forever
That our love was true
But could it be possible that it didn’t make any difference to you?
We weren’t perfect; no one really is
But pretending I’m not worth it, is the worst ever diss
Walk around like I’m nothing
Like I never meant a thing
Like killing me inside didn’t do anything to your heartstrings
I won’t pretend that it didn’t hurt
My heart still bleeds with every word
I won’t pretend that I don’t miss your touch
That your smiles didn’t brighten my day
That knowing you were close, took my breath away
But I won’t be weak
I won’t ask if you cared
If love ever mattered, despite what I’ve said
No knight in shining armor
No damsel in distress
No fairytale ever-after
Just this fairytale instead
