What Comes After Happily Ever After

What comes after happily ever after?
Are the days still full of echoing laughter?
Fairytales only end to once again begin.
After the ending does good still win?

Left with thoughts of the lovers tomorrow.
Do simple white weddings follow sorrow?
Curiosity lingers for the next day.
Is love still beautiful in every way?

Remembering, young dreams of a true loves kiss.
Do all stories conclude with such sweet bliss?
Does eternal love conquer love after all?
Maybe Cinderella wishes she never went to the ball.

Is prince charming possibly real?
Or do we only believe what the heart feels?
Do fairytales have happy endings?
Or does the world just keep on pretending?
