A Fake Fairy Tale

Why do you let children dream of fairy tales when you know one day their worlds of imagination will come crashing down on them? You know that the world they saw through crafted lences will be destroyed by the truths of life. And you encourage it. But inevitabely, in time, their innocence will dwindle, and their carefree souls will exist no more.
You do it because you treasure their innocence.
Because the same cruel fate was dealt to you.
And because, you hope that they will come out on top, unscathed,
despite the fact that no one ever does.
