My life isn't a fairytale

I might be stuck in a tower,

But that tower is filled with shadows, sadness, and despair.

The shadows that blind me from happiness.

The sadness that creates endless cries.

The despair that makes me want to have an end.

I had hope,

I lost it.

There's no prince charming,

There's only loss, sacrifice, and lies.

I sit in the corner hearing screams and cries.

The screams that ring in my ear.

The cries that linger around me.

Love is lost in my life.

For those who found theirs,

You are a lucky one.

I'm living a nightmare,

And it's called life.
