'Open Fairytale'

It's so easy to talk to you
             So simple to say 'hello' 
And sprout a conversation that will 
Leave me with a smile. 
Casual compliments and silly jokes, 
But mostly just happiness, simplicity. 


It's so nice to talk to you, 
To feel desirable, attractive, 
Wanted. 
For a male, other than him or the 'friend' 
To make me believe for a moment 
             That I am beautiful.
I've been badly bruised, deeply, painfully, 
And despite that gradual healing 
My bruise keeps getting knocked. 


You are a shield, a suit of armour 
That won't let me get hurt. 
I pray you continue, say hello more often
Make me smile, and I'll do my best,


Knock my bruise, my strength will heal it. 
Make me cry, 
              My smile is bigger than my tears. 
There is a nasty man, 
              I am a princess. 
I give you permission to be my knight in shining armour. 


Come save me.
