Princess or dragon?

It was at that moment
That I realized you would always be the damsel in distress
No matter how many times I saved you.
You didn't want to be saved
Rather you chose the dragon instead.

Things always looked better from your ivory tower.
Until you got bored.

You sent word for help
And time and time again I wanted to prove that these cries didn't fall on deaf ears.

Tell me dear when the dragon started breaking your walls did you start to find it charming?

Did you swoon for him instead of finding it alarming?

I don't want to be your knight in armor anymore

But still I find myself wanting to know that you're okay

I dream of the day we are friends
But this time I can't bend myself backwards to let you back into my life.

Did it feel good to break down the castle you watched me build for so long?

Did you get jealous that I found a new princess to protect?

Does your crown of thorns ever get heavy?
