Real life is not always pretty
Not coated in sugar
Glitter
Or gold
Few bask in rays of sunshine
Most shiver in the cold
Life is not fairytales
No "happily-ever-after"
Why you must forget the tears
Focus on the laughter
Stories seemingly end the same
Agony
Strife
Or sorrow
Though deep down we know things won't change
Hope for a better tomorrow
