Bitter Princess

You can’t see
Past her pretty head
You only imagine
Every fairy tale you've read
You desire a woman
Who is feminine yet strong
Vulnerable and sensitive
She who can do no wrong
She’s as bloody charming as Beauty
(and can you be the beast?)
She’s as beautiful as Rapunzel
(but do you see the shallow girl beneath?)
She’s as gentle as Snow White
(and yes, she fucked all seven dwarves)
She’s as romantic as Cinderella
(but she’d rather get high than dance with you my prince…)
You want to protect her
Be strong for all her fears
But she can open doors herself thanks
She’s done it for all these years
Why do you get it so wrong?
Each and every time
She never wishes upon that star
And to fall in love would be a crime
She hates those romantic movies
And your soft puppy dog eyes
She doesn’t want to touch you
And she never ever cries
It’s so sad how you want her
Or at least, the fairy tale you see
For that’s not who she really is
Or will ever be
Why are you so fucking blind?
Why can’t I make you see?
That the girl who possesses everything you truly want
Isn’t her
...it's me.
