Fairytale Love - A Poem by Sierra Hemingway

I never thought this could really happen to me

How could I be loved

How could I be cherished

Should I really believe this is real

Or is this a fantasy

A dream

A coma

Will I wake up and if so

I pray I never will

Love like this doesn’t come everyday

It’s once in a lifetime

It’s the fairytale

Happily ever after

Then I woke up

It was just a dream

A nightmare

The kind that takes your breath away and brings you to tears

I wish I had never woken up

I wish I had never known

What it could feel like in your arms

Can I find this feeling again?

When I'm awake and reality has kicked in

Or will I never get to feel

True love like in the fairytale
