Fairy Tales

He is a jaded boy, filled with despair and dejection.
The many setbacks and disappointments he has faced with nary a reason,
served as a bleak reminder of his still naive mind; a harsh lesson that taught him Reality.
But, deep down, he still believes that it's not all true, and the ways of the world is not all that bad.

He is an unloved boy, filled with anger and resentment.
The many courtships he has attempted all amounted to naught.
Disbelieved that people always choose otherwise; Mocked by the Providence's dry humour,
Yet, the depths of his heart holds true to Unconditional Love.

He is still just a boy, never growing a day older than he is.
He still lives in the shadows of the deceased, the past where Ideals fluttered around like spawning butterflies.
He is still enthralled by the beauty of the sight, but never realising that the wasps had stung him all over.
Hence, he'll never grow up, bearing the brunt of the world with Fairy Tales chained tightly on his legs
