Fairytales

I'm just a little girl in a grown-ups body.

Every time I see you, you're always nose-deep in a book,

Yeah because books don't disappoint.

I know the stories are fairytales but sometimes I wish I could have my own fairytale- even for a day.

From the moment I wake up till the moment I go to bed, I'm just disappointed

From life choices, career paths and poor decision-making

The library is filled with do-overs.

Pick up a book and drop into the world it provides in between the words,

When that's done grab another and fight a dragon.

Maybe you’ll find a world that’ll inspire you to improve your own world and help you fight your own Dragon.
