The Ocean is Calling (And Other Poems)

Oh Princess

(Written by Sofia) 

Oh princess

You sit in your castle waiting

For a prince who will never come

You glow on your throne

With love for a person you don't know

Oh princess

You don't know the wonders of your world

You haven't seen the stars

So you can't reach for them

You only know darkness, no light

Princess

Your castle is not a prison

The doors stand closed

But there's a reason they have hinges

Not having a prince

Doesn't make you less of a princess

Your glow isn't restricted to a throne

It's meant to be shared

Princess

Your glow doesn't depend on

Love for others

But rather love for yourself

The wonders of the world

Are at your fingertips

You just have to reach for them

Princess

The stars were made for you

They will light your way

Even when the sun and moon give up

Remember, though, they can't shine

Without darkness

And remember, above all

You are a princess

Which makes you

The most magical kind of magical

Princess
