For Y

oh, do those pretty
little love stories
amuse you? make
you smile and wish
and sigh with delight?
Where every girl
has a prince
and only one in
a million is
a frog?
Young hearts, silly
wishes. I believed
it, too.
Do little boys think
there is a
princess for them
and only one in
a million is
a bitch.
Oops, i mean,
witch. What
a slip of the tongue.
I've grown older
and so have they
and now, one
in a million is
a prince,
the odds are too big
for me.
Do you still
believe those
pretty fairy tales?

  1. thanks,e. i really like it. it's really good.. and true.. and i don't know if i do or not anymore, but i think i do.. because somewhere somebody mustv'e found fairy tale love. and i hope one day i will too.

    i'm a dreamer, and reality says that dreams don't come true, but for some reason my heart can't let go of the hope that they do. :)

    hey, that could be a poem!
