From a young age,
girls are taught to wish.
Not for intelligence, not for wisdom, but
for beauty
and for a boy.
A knight in shining armor to save the day and to
save us,
princesses
I'm not a princess, but I used to wish I were one.
I used to wish
to save myself
from the dragon or the witch and
then save the knight too.
I'm not a princess
but I'm still going to save myself.
