Fairy tales do not teach children that dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children that dragons can be killed.

i want to scream
until it hurts.
cry
until there's nothing left.
close my eyes,
forget.
fall away to nothingness.
open up
and let it all out.
fall asleep.
never wake up.
become a part
of the unfeeling world
where everyone is numb.
never remember
and always forget
what my life
and i've become.
