The writing of a happy ever after
Is an art I cannot master
No matter how hard I try
It seems I want to make my readers cry
I swear I don't mean to write this way
Believe me I have written
"And as the sun set that day
The couple knew their love would last forever
And so, through fields of purple heather
They ran away into the distance,"
But despite all my insistence
And everything I've tried
I can't stop ending all my stories
With a great big
And then they DIED
I don't know what my problem is
What makes me write this way
But when the last page is done
When the last battle is finally won
And the crowd is cheering on because
The war is over and they can all be happy... NOT
I'm so amused, that's what you thought
The general dies, now read book two
A tragedy coming to book stores near you!
