Poem

They tell me, "Dream big little girl, lift your wings and fly high above the sky."
But as soon as I extend my wings for flight,
They rip them off my back and keep them out of sight. 

They tell me, "Keep your faith little girl, open up your heart."
But as soon as I let myself fall in love,
They tear him and his love out of my grasp.
Leaving me utterly alone while my blood feels as though it's made of sap. 

They tell me "Just keep your head above the water little girl, things are never as hopeless as they seem."
But as soon as I get a gasp of air,
The waves crash down on top of me
Dragging me towards the bottom of the sea.

They tell me, they tell me, they tell me…
Dream big.
Let yourself love.
Everything will be okay.
It took time for me to be able to see
That everything that they would say
Was only another lie told to be told. 
Knowing that the reality is far from that "truth"
Dreams don't always come true.
Life is no kissing booth. 
Not everything works out in the end, 
You will drown sometimes, that's just the trend.
Accept these facts, or you shall truly be lost.
Nothing is handed to you, and everything has a cost.

So sure, dream those big dreams.
Go and fall in love.
But at the end when the sun is greeted by the moon,
Never think that we exist in a fairytale.
Wake up and smell the reality. 
Feel the warmth of the sun,
But also the bitterest of snow as it eats at your skin.
Allow room for the beauty of this life,
But never be ignorant of the darkness that creeps within.
