To be the princess in my fairy tale

To be the prince and the valiant knight

To be the king of all seven lands

And to be the queen of the world

To live in a world of adventure and magic,

Fairy dust and green lands of beauty

In my own castle as lord and savior

Protecting my kingdom with bravery

To snuggle in bed

On a rainy day with a magical book

Knowing that mom was around

And dad was keeping the fort safe

To wear a pearl necklace

On my pale slender neck

And look as fresh and ethereal as

A redhead with green eyes

To walk in the snow in the morning

When the moon is still shining

Feeling completely alone yet safe

With the world slowly starting to buzz with life

To feel the sprinkle of raindrops

Hugging my skin with the wind

To take a breath and feel my lungs fill

With the smell of fresh rain

And gloomy, cozy weather

That sends a shiver down my spine

In awe of a perfect moment in time

To feel peace with a tinge

Of a bittersweet ache

To be or not to be

As you like it

In a midsummer night’s dream

To the sound of the empty drum

No place I’d rather be

Than in a realm of imagination

Freedom to be anyone

Go anywhere as I please

Forever safe in my

Cozy, fantasy land
