Damsel In Distress

A damsel-in-distress day and night,
Waiting for the sun to shine
in her gloomy heart.
Waiting for her knight
to sweep her of her feet,
For she will feel incomplete
without her other half,
Ending each day with a laugh
and a kiss.

But is individuality not key to loving yourself?
To finding yourself?
No knight in shining armor to save 
a damsel in distress from her worst enemy,
Herself.
