Jaded Dreams
a strange dense fog
keeps consuming my mind
trapping me in a mucky bog
I can't seem to leave behind
a thick sticky mist
clings to my every dream
breath of the frog I kissed
before he hopped down stream
an evil taunting fairy tale
haunts each sleeping hour
a romanticized version of hell
is beginning to devour
what lingers in my heart's core
the last remaining sliver
of all sweet hope for
my happily ever after
