The Forceful Hand of Society


'A prince needs a princess'  he has been told all his life

A woman, pretty women, go and be happy, prosper 

with a woman

pick a woman, a beautiful woman, make her your queen

you can have any 

but she must be a woman, a girl

he has known nothing other than happieness lies in nothing else 

but it has never felt right 

to be told all your life that the only thing you need is what will make you none the more sad

it is the only way

'but i'll be so much more happier frollicing in the fields with a-'

'Princess. you are a prince.'

but the only way to make him truley shine was if he were in the arms of his own prince charming
