Fairytale (Version 1)

I want to be a fairytale.

I want to see the knight

save the prince.

I want to see the magical

boy from lands unknown

fall in love with the ordinary

boy from the farm.

I want to see queer boys

go on adventures.

I want to see legions of

lesbians fighting for love

and their homes.

I want to see the courageous

prince who was born a princess

and vice versa.

I want to be a fairytale.

I want to be a beacon of hope

for future generations of

queer and beautiful children.

I want to be an example of

how they can create their

own stories and fantasies

with them at the center.
