So Long Mr. Charming


Who can say that being needed led to a breakdown?

In the beginning what was desired,

Prince Charming riding on a white stallion

Ready to slay dragons

And carry burdens

Only this prince didn’t have a clue on how

To ride a horse

And was afraid of his own shadow

In distress he left his princess

To fend for herself and slay her own dragons

What was the need for Prince Charming?

He couldn’t hold down his own fort

Lost the respect of his court

People laughed and made snide

Remarks behind his back

Jeered his ignorance

Still he remained clueless

Needed? Not any more

Now his princess was Queen

Of her own domain and ruled with

Passion and content

To everyone she was the true warrior

With strength and courage

As for Prince Charming he’s still

Trying to figure out how to ride a horse…

Beauty She Is


Beneath her surface no one bothered to explore

External exquisiteness catches eyes
Antagonism never touched her soul 
Understanding gave her gracefulness
Truth was her strength 

Years of hard work with no rewards


She still held her head high
Her greatest gift were her children
Even when they’d stumble and fall 


In her was the heart of warrior
Soul of an angel she will forever be


Beauty She Is…
