This is set at some point before surprise/innocence, but after reptile boy.

This isn't some fairy tale. When I kiss you, you don't wake up
from a deep sleep and live happily ever after.


When you were little,
You dreamt of him –
Prince Charming, come to
Sweep you off your feet.

You didn't know
It was him until he
Kissed you for that
First time, but
It was him –
Prince Charming, come to
Sweep you off your feet.

When you were younger
Than now, you were a
Romantic; you thought about
Happy endings and
Ever afters. But
This wasn't some fairytale.
Prince Charming told you that.

Not to long ago, you
Kissed someone properly for the
First time, but
It wasn't him – your
Prince Charming – you
Just somehow knew
He was still out there
Waiting for you

Many moons ago, you told your
Mother how all boys are
Icky. All except for one;
Prince Charming wasn't icky.
He couldn't be.

Many sunsets past, you thought
You were in love – found
Prince Charming at last, but
He was still in the night, and
You waited for him.

A few sunrises since you met
Prince Charming, and
You knew it was him. It wasn't a
Fairytale existence,
It was real. And still
Prince Charming, come to
Swept you off your feet.


Yeah, I was writing random lyrics to songs stuck in my head, thinking about stuff, and I started to write this, it's probably terrible, since I only took about five minutes to write it, but I never edit poems, because that's not how I wrote it. Yeah.
