Fairy tales, fantasies which children are brought up with. A place where good triumph over evil, love triumph over vengeance, where all the the good-hearted live happily ever afterwhile the bad suffer their consequences. Fantasies that have happy endings. Fairy tales are always beautiful, never ugly.
Reality, a complete opposite of fairy tale. Harsh and unpredictable. Love that does not exist. And friendship, betrayed. Unknowing of who to trust, and who not. Life sometimes can be empty but full of confusion. Sometimes, you thought you found a friend, a true friend. In your eyes, she is a beautiful soul. A pure and sincere heart buried inside her. Yet, in the name of friendship, you are betrayed. You feel stupid being used and still putting your trust in her, but you choose to be a fool. Because, you still believe in her.
And sometimes, you know that there are people out there who really care about you. And you, on the other hand, care about them too. But, you refuse to let them know and you start avoiding them. You rejected their care. Make them feel they worth nothing to you. Show them the complete opposite of the truth.You keep hurting them. And deep down inside you, you feel hurt too. You are being selfish so they will not care about you anymore. Only then, you can slowly forget about them.
You do not even know why you are doing all this. Afraid of what will happen. Uncertain of the future. Your hearts want them to stay but your brain says it’s not right. So, you follow your brain and your heart starts to sink because it is too heavy. You feel sad and sorry for what you have done. But you have no other choice as you have started to build a fort to protect yourself. A selfish act but don’t know what’s better to do. You rather lost them by hurting them and yourself than to give them a chance to care for you.
It is like a game. You have bet too many times and you lost them all. This round, the bet differ by a slight, and it is bigger. If you win, the banker will lose a great deal and might even go bancrupt. You do not wish for that. But if you lose, you will regret. You do not want that either. The best that can hapen is you lose but you enjoy the lost because you have let go the burden and enjoy the freedom. But, the future cannot be seen and you are uncertain whether you can bear the consequences of this bet. Afraid to take the risk, you walk away. You do not want to gamble anymore. You feel empty but it’s over. There is no turning back.
In this world, life is full of uncertainty, it is misty and unexplainable. There is no solution for everything. No matter scientists try how hard to explain through their studies, some things remain a mystery. People hurt you and you cannot avoid. Then, you hurt others and finally you hurt yourself. Why is there such a chain? No one has the answer.
If only life’s a fairy tale. People love you and you return their love. People care for you and you care for them. A place where you have a guardian angel, willing to be there for you in times of miseries and loneliness. An angel to look after you. An angel who loves you. An angel that makes you feel safe. An angel that creates miracles.
If only life’s sweet and beautiful. If only life’s a fairy tale. If only…
