sleeping beauty
once upon a time
there was a beautiful
beautiful
girl
all the boys
in the kingdom loved
loved
her
but they didn’t love her for her mind or her personality
they lusted
lusted
after her body
the princess,
tired of the boys gazes, fell
fell
into a deep sleep
for a hundred years,
she peacefully slept
slept
undisturbed
and in those hundred years
times changed
changed
for the better
the princess
finally rested, woke
woke
and entered a world where she was more
more than a body
to be objectified
objectified
more
she finally was free
and as an independent being, she soared
soared
to great heights
