The Real World

Welcome to the real world where Cinderella has six inch stilettos and carries flat shoes just in case where Rapunzel is shaved or has short hair due to split ends where sleeping beauty has mints just in case you want to kiss her where snow white has no animals so she sings in the shower where Tiana kisses many frogs hoping one will give her a Tiara Where kingdoms are rooms And palaces are a pile of sheets. Welcome! Where Prince charming is Anything but a prince Charming is his string of lies Where the knight is courageous only under the influence And his shining armour is but a cracked personality And the only protection He offers is rubber. So welcome! To the real world Where the world is unfair Yet it is fair For it is unfair to everyone Welcome to the real world Where happy ever after Is only found in Jesus! Peace!
