Fairy Tale

She lived in her own fairy tale.

She still believed in happily ever after and prince charming and good triumphs over evil even when reality – the whole world – said the opposite.

“It’s a lie.” People told her. “The world is dark and dangerous and sad and–”

“I would know.” She said. She remembered the times she was used, hurt and forgotten.

She believed in her happily ever after and prince charming and good triumphs over evil so that she had a reason to wake up next day.

So that she wouldn’t break whenever she was used, hurt and forgotten.
