Wishing for a Prince


I am not your fairytale Princess. I never get the guy.

I'm not the beautiful girl with a tragic backstory.

I'm just me. A little bit ordinary. A little bit plain. Not the princess kind.

But maybe I want a prince to save me and ignore my many flaws.

Maybe I want someone to sweep me off my feet and pretend like I matter for just one short moment in time.

What is so wrong with that?

Is it bad that I am wishing for a prince?
