There was nothing charming about him.  
She did not give a care about his stupid hairline or his shining armored teeth.  
She did not give a care about his pearly white horse or his tin foiled armor.  
There was something about him which she absolutely despised
maybe it was the way she was forced to be with him or the way that she did not care for him.
She shared interest for someone better.  
“Once upon a time…”  
She was tired of feeling forced.
She was tired of being sold.  
He was no good for her either.
Sincerity was nothing he wanted for himself or for her.
“Once upon a time…”
They both met at the pond prior to being married  
Both reached for their rings and threw them
into the crystal blue water…
As the metals hit the water— a rainbow appeared.  
Once upon a time…
He met his price charming and she met her confused princess
