Cinderella


You say I was your Cinderella.

The problem, though, is that

Prince Charming doesn’t lie

and Cinderella isn’t supposed

to be a troubled soul.

I think, if I have to be a princess,

I’d rather be Fiona,

Who doesn’t take anyone’s shit

And found someone different,

Like her, to love her.
