Just a poem I wrote for English. R&R please!
Happily Ever After?
Fiction should come with a warning label
Caution: may induce
Urges to lock yourself in a tower and lay pitifully on the bed
Spontaneous bursts of singing to animals
Sudden midday daydreams about fictional boyfriends
Suddenly it will hit you
You're no fairytale princess
No prince charming to come and rescue you in shining armor
As much as you wish and you hope
That "Prince Charming" will come over and realize you're his princess
It's not going to happen
Because as much as you want to be a perfect princess
You're only a geek and he's Mr. popular
Your fate will never intertwine with his
Warning for your own sanity: don't read fiction
You'll find no gold threaded "Happily Ever After"
On the back of your fairytale
So forget fictional characters and black words on pages
Get out there and live your life
Click the little green button, it won't shock you!
