Fuck Fairytales What if I told you now That the fairytales are lies Every legend, myth and story All those we lived by What if Aurora did not wish To be touched while she, asleep And Persephone shrieked Consumed in darkness and grief Their saviors became their captives Gods turned into thieves Princes turned into monsters Forcing two lives to interweave What if Psyche's only options Were either Eros or the cliff If all these tragic romances Are actually not myths What if Helen felt as trapped As the Trojans did in war Instead of a noose around her neck A cursed oath she swore What if good old Cinderella Left her slipper as testimony To remind to all that freedom Was far greater than matrimony What if the little mermaid did not choose To sacrifice her whole identity For a man who was not loyal Her voice, her scales, and family What if you found a speck of truth In these treacherous words you read And say "fuck fairytales" out loud For they're as fucked up, as fucked can be © Katerina Sinanian
