This life is not a Disney movie

This life is not a Disney movie. The beast will never turn into a charming prince. This is not a romance movie (you know I despise them so). There are no grand gestures of love, of running through the gates of the airport or flying through the doors of the church at that perfect movie moment. The plane always takes off. The bride is kissed, prepared for a life of playing house and pretend. In this life, things don't work out how they should have, could have, would have, were promised to do so. Things do not happen for a reason, real or imagined. If only, if only life should have, could have, would have, were to be so kind. If only it would be so kind. Turn it off now. This movie is making me sick. I can already guess what happens in the end.
