Happily ever after

by xXMyThanatosXx   Dec 12, 2005


Does every a gothic romance end like this?
With a cut of a kiss against thy wrist?
Does every a story end like this?
With a fear of never being kissed?

Happily ever after
Society's unrealistic romantic scale
Happily ever after
Society's cookie cutter fairy-tale

Every little girl is raised to
Believe
That she has a prince
Waiting
for her on one
Knee

But isn't this psychologically damaging?
This "Happily ever after" scare
To believe that they are the world
And grow up to realize that no man cares

Happily ever after
Society's unrealistic romantic scale
Happily ever after
Society's cookie cutter fairy-tale

But if you look closely
You will see off far
Out there, there is a man
Who will not leave you with a scar

There is a man who can hold you so dear
There is a man who you can kiss without fear
There is a man who can love you through the years
In this cookie cutter fairy-tale

    This is a better example of what I commented about on the first poem.

    "Every little girl is raised to
    Believe
    That she has a prince
    Waiting
    for her on one
    Knee"

    The pauses in this one were needed. Every word after created a new meaning. Unlike the first poem.

    "There is a man who can love you with cheer" That line didn't really fit. It looked force.

    Anyways, the 2 poems I read I would give a 5, because I cannot judge a person's poetry, since it's personal, and I am not you.

    "Happily ever after

    I especially liked that part, but this is an amazing poem throughout.
    Beautiful.
