Damsel

There once lived a damsel locked up in a castle
far away from the worlds sight
Of her prince she would dream and although it did seem
hopeless she wait each night

She grew weary and thought of the life that she sought
believing that happiness was gone
But that night it changed, her thoughts rearranged
and she decided her waiting was done

The idea of prince charming now seemed alarming
She would no longer pray to be rescued
Princess would escape not a moment to late
it was clear what she must do

Without a man she still can
live and love her life
joy would not come from the boy
nor from man and wife

She finally realized she’d been hypnotized
The prince would not deliver salvation
The curtains she tore than bust down the door
Once damsel now, liberation
