Prince Charming

Who says I want Prince Charming?
Every little girl dreams.
Dreams of the day
When her Prince Charming
Will come.
I always wanted that fairytale life.
I waited and waited for him
But Prince Charming never came.
Did he forget about me?
Did he simply take a wrong turn
And decide not to ask for directions?
Has he foud another princess?
Am I too late?
Now, I know that he’s not coming.
But who is?
Do I get some one?
Anyone?
Even if he’s not a prince.
I want to have some one who calls me immediately after leaving my house.
Just to be sure
That I’m okay.
I want him to hug me
Arm wrestle with me
Talk to me
And call me when we’re fighting
Even though I’m too stuborn
To pick up the phone
And forget what happened.
But he’s not here yet.
So I wait.
Sure I’ve kissed a few frogs in the meantime
But he’s the boy who won’t mind my impatience
And will laugh it off with me.
So maybe I do want Prince Charming.
But not Cinderella’s.
Mine.
