I can still remember a time when my mother would tuck me into bed, and tell me wondrous stories. In lands of rolling green hills and castles with turrets that reached to the big blue sky. They had happy endings that were sealed with a kiss. It was always about a beautiful princess, who had gotten herself in a spot of trouble. At the darkest point, there came a light, a handsome Prince Charming existed to save her, to love her, and cherish her.
They had unconditional love, and lived happily ever after. Real life is different.
We aren't all destined to be beautiful, smart and successful. We aren't all perfect. On the outside I am smiling, feigning happiness but on the inside I am ready to break, I need my Prince Charming to come and save me. I'm at a point in which I am so helpless; I would give everything for somebody to save me. Not that I haven't already given everything that I've got.
I lost my two best friends. Both were dead, yet I somehow managed to stay alive. Awful mutterings, rumors and lies fill my life. My family had left when I needed them most. They went far, far away. I have no idea where they are. I've been without them for so long, I begin to doubt that I ever had them.
And I am trapped. Alone, in a world of people who loathe me.
I'm alone, nobody to go through this with me, it's unbearable. I don't want to hide away, I want to burst open and tell someone of the hurt I feel inside. I want someone to understand. I want Prince Charming to come and sweep me off my feet. To take me away, to a land of happiness compassion, understanding and love. But nobody will ever come. I've been holding onto a dream for too long. People say that a light will come before the darkest point, but it just seems to be getting darker and darker. On the contrary, I seem to live in maze, getting myself deeper and deeper, finding a dead end on whatever path I choose. And even if I did find a light, I've been in the dark so long, I'm not sure I'll ever adjust to the light. If it ever came. Fairy tales exist only in our minds, intangible and a lie. There is no such thing as a happy ending.
There is no happily ever after.

Yup, this is about two pages shorter than usual, but I liked the way it was. R&R, and remember, flames are for arsonists.
