My Fairytale

Life is so full of dread,

people constantly in anguish,

children as young as 13 getting disowned for who they are,

a system working against us,

and those who believe that we shouldn't exist.

Our soldiers,

who were supposed to protect us,

killing,

based on their own internal stereotypes.

But sometimes,

every once in a blue moon,

someone in this world will end up with a fairytale.

Someone will meet their soulmate,

someone will be so deliriously happy that they forget about the anguish,

and the hardships,

for just a second.

Someone will be so content staring into the eyes of their lover,

that the soldiers,

and the system,

is the last thing on their mind.

Not everyone gets a fairytale,

not everyone gets to experience love so deep and so real,

like a fairytale.

Sometimes people go through their entire lives,

content, yet unfulfilled.

I wish everyone could get a fairytale,

I wish everyone could experience the magic that is loving someone and having them love you back.

When I met her,

I knew she was the one.

I was terrified,

of hurting her like I had hurt every other person who had ever walked into my life.

But something about her drew me in.

Something about the way she talked,

the way she carried herself,

the way she was so confident yet so approachable made me not scared anymore.

It made all the worries, and the doubts vanish the moment I saw her face.

I didn't believe in fairytales until I met her.

I didn't think that true love was real,

and I definitely didn't think I would be someone blessed with a fairytale.

But baby you and me,

we are a fairytale,

we are a giant ball of light,

and we are amazing.

So, if I could just have you forever,

I wouldn't need anything else.

If I could just live in our beautiful fairytale forever,

I will be the happiest girl in the world,

and I can promise you that.
