I didn't have the energy to shine. I didn't have the strength to put on my shining armour, and I couldn't spend the evening smiling and laughing with you, if overnight I'd be crying alone.
What are friends for, if not to help you through. If they become nothing but a load, are they even friends anymore?
I've been spending my whole life circling around this question. Going through every excuse, trying to change and twist its truth.
But I no longer have the energy to lie, I no longer can put on a smile and hope for the best.
Because I can't be others prince in shining armor, while inside, I am still the frog, and the princess to be saved.
