Prince Charming – The Aftermath

August 20th, 2010 by Prutha Leave a reply »

Another yawn & she straightens her hair,
Lazily she rises to slump again in the chair.
She listens to the rain falling with a roar,
Her cats purr scratching at the door.

Is there anything to do?
Is there anyone to woo?
Is there anywhere to go?
Within creeps a slothful ‘No’.

She considers the days gone by.
Then she was young and sly.
And was never sans a guy.
Alas ditched them sans a why.

Guys fell for her left, right n center,
For she seemed so sweet n tender.
But made them wince n wonder,
When she slapped with a thunder.

Few were short, Few were dark,
Few were afraid to ask.
To select was a one big task,
But for her it was just a lark.

Me a Princess,
Deserve a Prince n no less.
Prince Charming is on his way
So bear with the dogs so filthy n stray!

Days went quickly but nights did crawl!
For Prince Charming could never cross the wall!
She did this, she did that,
but l
ife was always a long haul.

Cats Purr, Rains roar,
Vision and mind now blur.
With eyes so moist,
She peeps into her past.

Did I overlook something?
Have I missed anything?
Was there anything more than met my eye?
She smiles a smile so wry.

Was he the one who looked like a sage?
Or was he the one with quite a rage?
With cheeks so wet she sits in a daze,
‘Prince Charming’ was after all just a haze….

    especially loved these lines:

    “With eyes so moist,

    Did I overlook something?
