Prince Charming

Love isn't like a
 fairy tale at all.
Especially when
 you've built a wall.

A wall to keep
 me out of your life.
A life you lead
 like you have no wife.

I couldn't love
 you more if I tried.
Even through all the
 tears I've cried.

I wish there was a
 "Happily ever after,"
But I fear "The End,"
 is coming a whole lot faster.

This is a sad write but has wonderful rhyme and flow. The truth in your words I too have experienced in my life and it is a sad reminder of just how cruel reality can sometimes be. Writing is a wonderful way to overcome the pains of life. Keep writing my poetry soup friend, as you do it so well, and keep faith that good things can happen to good people. Smiles from Lolita
