The Other Side of Fairytales

And from the rain I shall emerge though drenched in pain and scarred by love For nothing solely worth the wait is easy,, we must rise above And what’s a little sorrow now the other side of fairytales Not just a carriage in the sun at times, a walk on beds of nails But oh, to seek its just reward to reach the place where love is free To know the one that you adore is safe despite the costly fee Goodbye to rain, bring clouds no more for now the sun is here to stay The fairytale of children’s prose is here and proudly on display And from the rain I shall emerge I say when times are filled of tears For knowing once the face of love will serve to conquer all my fears

'...and they lived happily ever after...' not always so but reading you one can believe it to be true. Good writing, as always, Mike.
