What do you do
when the fairy dust wears off
and you are no longer able
to fly?
When you remember
that you are just
a mortal among mortals,
and realize
that there is no longer
any magic
to transport you to other worlds.
Have you ever noticed
that fairy tales always end
at the wedding?
Was it enough to last a lifetime?
Or will you be left
empty and alone
constantly searching
for a new escape
from the reality
that is your life.
