The Horror of Fairy Tales

Taught since a young age
To believe in princes and princesses,
Angels and fairies,
Knights in shining armor,
Told that one day we will be
Swept off our feet by a handsome man,
Saved from an unfortunate situation
By a hero we’ll forever be thankful for,
We grow up in a world of lies.

How long does it take us to realize the truth,

That
The only princes and princesses are snobby little bitches,
And the angels are the dead.

The fairies don’t exist;
They’re forever a part of our imagination.

The only knight I’ve come across
Is too fucked up inside his head
To do his job.

The only time we will be
Swept off our feet
We’ll soon after be thrown,
Flipped upside down
Into a puddle of mud.

And the only person who can save you
Is yourself.
So I suggest you save yourself from
This horror
We call
A fairy tale.
