A Flawed Fairytale

"Love will find a way through paths where wolves fear to stray." 
                                                         - Lord Byron

      Life seems a facade
  love an illusion
reality’s flawed
   just a delusion

   When heart is broken
happy mask gets torn
  dark pain unspoken
      prickles like a thorn

No happy ending
   for this fairytale
     all are pretending
  in this stormy gale

  Hope in fore’er cracked
     yet there’ll come a dawn
   imperfect odds stacked
still Love conquers on
