When is life fair anyway?

I was wandering and wondering along the woods
Suddenly My mind crosses through the days of childhood 
When each girls dreams one day of being princess
When her mom is the epitome of All she wishes 
And her dad the hero, the knight in shining armour
When each boy dreams of that charming prince 
When his mom portrays all qualities he would one day browse
When his dad is but a friend, a guide  by his side
When little siblings are but their goal 
And the reflection of their soul 
When every little hope is watered by all kinds of effort and bite 
And when all the tyrannies are overcame with triumph 
When finally a day comes to reckon 
When the princess meets his Prince Charming 
Life has cruel and disheartening plans 
The boat they boarded capsizes 
On their maiden journey through ups and down   
Through the rugged terrains of high and low 
Dreams shatters to nightmares and begins to haunt 
Hopes turn sour and belittles their hunt 
In anguish and agony they stare above 
And utters Why us, why us?
