Midnight at the Ball


She never wanted to find love.

She never wanted to be a princess.

She wanted a night of fun.

She wanted a night with no chores.

 

She never wanted to be married to the first person she saw.

She never wanted to be the future queen.

She wanted to be free.

She wanted to see the world.

 

She never wanted to be found by Prince Charming.

She never wanted to be a slave to her stepmother.

She wanted to have fun and be free for just one night.

She wanted to just be "Cinderella".
