No More Princes

No More Princes

A Poem by Persephone

People always tell me,

“Don’t worry dear…one day your prince will come”

 

I have decided

I don’t want a prince

 

Princes are spoiled

Entitled

Confused

 

They play games

And they lie

 

They pretend to be

Valiant

And Noble

 

But in reality

They are nothing of the kind

 

They take what they want

And leave you behind

 

No I don’t want a prince…

 

I’d rather marry a king

 

Kings have responsibilities

They don’t have time for play things

 

They need a partner

Someone they can trust

 

A wife they can lean on

To help them with stuff

 

Kings are mature

Educated

And humble

 

No more princes for me

I’ll wait for a king

Wow, this is really amazing and an interesting way to say what kind of guy you want. Yeah, I know how it felt to always been told that "One day your prince will come". For awhile, I started to actually believe that but sometimes I highly doubt that these days. But then again, I'm young and still dealing with immature and confused boys. I have to agree that they do play a lot of games, in fact, mind games. It drives me crazy! I think saying you want a "king" instead was such a brilliant idea! I wish I would've thought of that!!! XD Again, wonderful job. Yeah, you'll find your "king" one day. Patience is the key :)
