some people imagine their prince charming in shiny armor

they expect to be this damsel in distress who gets picked up on this white horse

for him, to have long shiny hair that blows in the wind

as he draws his sword from his sheath

then proceeds to slay a dragon that breathes fire hot enough to burn down a whole village

but

my prince charming has no armor

instead he builds armor around me and my heart

protecting me from dark paths

while his short curly hair rests on his head

and his light brown skin

lays against mine

sometimes he smiles

sometimes he cries

and sometimes he laughs so hard he cures all my insecurities

and that's okay

because a prince like that will be braver than any fantasy

of a armored horse riding young girls dream
