Prince Charming

I remember spending days dreaming of who you'd be

Wishing on stars

Writing lists

Praying you were safe

And happy

I thought I'd found you multiple times

But still something was missing

I searched and searched,

and then I stopped.

I still dreamed that one day you'd come

I'd be busy with a life of my own

But you'd find a way to get through

"A real man makes room for himself"

That's what I told them.

And you did.

You found a mess

But, you stayed anyway.

You held me as I cried at night

Overwhelmed with life's cruelties

You sang to me to make me smile

When life had lost it's melody

With you,

I feel more myself than ever before

I feel safe and treasured.

Comfortable enough to be me.

Finally.

With you...

I'm complete.
