A Fairy’s Lament Poem by Frances M

We fade, we float away
With every passing season,
Destined to perish alone,
in this cruel world wracked by reason.

They open their own bank accounts
Have their first love affairs
Then they forget about us,
For we, were never there.

Abandoned for responsibility,
Slaughtered by their goals,
We are the remnants of laughter,
which safeguard their souls.

The simple pleasures pursued by th'innocent

Blighted.
by the six o’clock news.
