Fairy Tale

My life is complicated

Sometime I feel it fails

Trying to make me domesticated

I'm not living in fairy tales



No princess there for me to wake

Unable to give a sweet kiss

No towering walls to break

No one able to grant my wish



There is no beanstalk with gold

Nothing left for me to find

No secret beauty for me to hold

I am the beast in my mind



My fairy tale will never come true

So I  better just close my book

Dark reality I must live through

My dreams are gone, which darkness took
