The darkest fairytale

Blackening hearts

You’re no Cinderella,

Walking around in stilettos

Wearing only black leather.

Getting lost in a forest

Like Little Red Riding Hood,

You can wear her innocence

But baby, you’ll never be good.

You are the beauty

You are the beast,

Eating the poison apples

Like It’s a feast.

Taking over castles

They made you queen,

Turning you into

An ice machine.

Fairytales too brutal

To be written,

No prince or princess

Just a bitch that didn’t listen.

This isn’t a story

About love & laughter,

It’s the darkest fairytale

With no happy ever after.

    No happily ever after? Even for the darkest fairytale? But surely the ending isn’t written, don’t preempt it. 😃😘

    Love it. Fairy tales have really dark roots, but most people are addicted to the sugar coating…
