A Fairytale Part Ii, Because We Know Those Are Complicated Too

complications escape the real world,
there's never a princess found,
whom doesn't need saving of some sort.
the villan is often more deceiving then we'd like to believe,
newly discovered time constraints can be overlooked in hidden places.

that villian could be the higher power,
screaming dead lines in your head,
increasing your stress and anxiety levels.
as for time,
it's one of the most comon things we ask for more of.

the princess may not have it any easier than you,
having to rely on others,
when not exactly wanting to.

complications escape the real world,
and linger near the perfect happy ending,
that we're looking for,
and may not always be as clear as we hoped.
