In matters of Being a knight in shining armor What makes up Prince Charming? Is it the gleam of his smile Or the boom of his voice Is it about his skills With a bow and axe Or does it rely more on his Valiant heart His code of honor When I was a girl I would always pretend I was a princess locked away in a tower If I’m being honest Playing pretend was more like a projection The creaking castle doors in my fantasies didn’t look much different from the slammed ones at home And the part they don’t tell you about growing up Is that the roofs may change But what’s underneath never really does I was always looking for my Prince Charming But lately, I have realized that I am royalty With out the slaying of dragons And true love’s kiss So the question that keeps coming back to me I am really a rescue mission? Or does the princess save herself in the happily ever after?
