Kalopsia

kalopsia: The delusion of things being more beautiful than they are.

Marriage.

The epitome of what every girl should dream of. The reality of it ends you with a broken heart, ruining whatever love you had for the other person. A meaningless paper takes down all the masks and glamor to reveal the ugly nightmare of marriage truly is; a prison. At thirteen I finally understood what I wanted from life: control and freedom. My happily ever after isn't some dream fairytale, it ends with me in the far away land of New York City, growing my empire to be an indomitable fortress. No it wasn't love that was going to make me happy; money and power, however, now that would be my heaven.
