Fairytales and butterflies

Most fairytales are a lie,
and if one lives in a fantasy for far-too long,
your life becomes eternally frozen.

You no longer see reality as it was anymore.
Everything becomes an illusion.
There is a fine blur between reality and fantasy.
Which story and reality is the truest for the person?

Rip off one butterfly wing, so it could no longer fly,
and then kept it in a cage, so it would never leave.
Watch the dreams die slowly, painfully,
until it was bled dry out of you
and you’re nothing left inside the cage.
