Fairy tales read at bedtime
Told me of a Prince who would complete me in this lifetime
Held on to this dreams and looked out the window,
For the Prince to arrive and take away my sorrow.
Held on to the hope that my Prince would arrive,
And deliver me, from this prison of mine.
Held on to the fantasy that once the Prince enters,
I would be free from my dark tormentor.
My Prince did arrive, I thought I was finally saved
I sighed with relief that I got the love that I craved
Little did I know, that he was looking for the same
Someone to complete him – a dame who would take his name.
Disappointments took me on a quest for the question that still loomed
Why did I still feel incomplete? Am I doomed?
After all the searches the path led me back to me.
There was nothing that I lacked and I was whole and complete.
I was my savior and the answer to my questions in the end,
And my ‘Happily ever after’ began just then.
We share the same fairytale! It wasn’t until I realized that no one was coming to save me, that I had to save myself! And, I too, found my Prince Charming. Today is our 30th wedding anniversary!
