Happy ending... not

Pain a figment of the mind
Love an illusion of a kind

The game we play,
because we hope and dream.
Fairy tales always end,
with happily ever after

Happy endings don't exist
But, bitter agony does
Shall I read the list
of all the misery?

The list never ends.
But, defeat is not admited
because life is given to love
when you believe in happy endings

you have put across your perception of love in a good way...

Happy endings don't exist
But, bitter agony does
Shall I read the list
of all the misery?
(of the painful hurts)
