Damaged Fairy Tale

An unhealthy road to ever after.

By Amelia DavisPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

Our once upon a time

Forever & always;

Imperceptibly slipping

Through the cracks

Each day, simply hiding

Behind the comfort,

All the memories of

Our love and connection.

.

Our journey has ended, as those

Memories transform into pain.

I understand that this twist

Waited, quietly observing,

Gathering evidence. Now all

The pain we ignited has erupted,

Polluting our sickening plot.

.

Our story was never ending;

We once agreed. Then

Cut short like a dull and

Quick roulette game.

We both pulled at the trigger,

Risking details for a difference,

For a sliver of adventure.

All for our own instant rush.

.

How did this tale become

So unfamiliar, so eerie.

.

I have become a

Complete stranger here.

The feeling of suffocating

While falling down this

Never ending nightmare

Hunts me. I need to escape.

I need to find my own story.
