Prince Charming

I am not a damsel in distress..
nor a beautiful princess..
I am not some Cinderella who lost her shoe..
I never even believed fairy tales were true!!

The description of prince charming caught my attention..
I questioned the way they would mention..
Is prince charming really about money, strength and looks?
doesn't he have characteristics other than mentioned in the books?

Then entered this charming man in my life..
A man who had guts to make me his wife..
My prince charming has a heart of gold..
Someone who has empathy towards everyone, young or old..
 
My prince charming gives me that extra push when I tremble..
he has great values and is extremely humble..
My prince charming doesn't command but stands by my side..
he made me believe in myself when my inner strength died!!

My prince charming takes care of me when I am ill,
he also lets me pay the bill!!
He yells and corrects me when I am wrong..
But he can also make me blush just by singing a song.

As you grow up you know life is not a dream..
All that glitters is not gold as it may seem..
 You don't need a handsome hunk with a fancy car...
All you need is a man who loves you the way you are!!

The two of me

I may seem calm, happy and fine..
there is an inner me that will never align..
There is a constant criticism for whatever I want to be..
I am not just dealing with self, I am dealing with the two of me!!

I create my own barriers, I draw my own line..
expect to achieve everything, expect everything to be fine..
I am my own critic before the society labels me..
the compulsion of perfection doesn't let me be...   



I turn my ability into a question mark..
I put off the fire even before a spark..
I fight with my demons but let them win..
The other me is not comfortable in my own skin..
