Cinderella

I lie awake at night
thinking about my prince,
He has to be smart and
charming and witty.
I will settle for nothing less.
He has to love me just as much
as i do him.
I'm looking for my knight in shining armor, have you seen him.

Many have tried but all have failed
to rescue my heart from this fiery dragon. It is my protector and wont let anyone through, alas is it him i see through the smoke and the flames?
Will he take me home today?

My hopes were false it was just another pretender. Not my valiant, brave knight that i remember. My heart has gone crazy without you baby, my one my only will you ever come to save me?

I am beginning to weep now my eyes are so sore. My heart is broken and it cant be fixed anymore. I guess I can be Cinderella but I'll be without my prince. My heart will remain torn and my eyes will remain red.

One last faker has come through the smoke, but he keeps getting further and finally hes outside my door. I think to myself can this be true, i was just about to give up on you. Down busts the door and he rushes in, my hero my prince! no more loneliness.

He picks me up and we go out the door and i think to myself what a wonderful fairytale i must be living. Locked up in a tower to be rescued by my prince. After years of waiting he finally came! My eyes snap open and my imagination blurs it was all just a dream.

I'm not Cinderella,
i have no prince charming,
to bust through my door,
my heart is still hurting,
my eyes are still crying,
but we will still be in love,
even without the shining armor.
