Shut Down
Am I still a Princess if I don't feel like one?
Confidence for blood
Which now has run dry, nearly gone
Can't tell which I dislike more,
Myself or these mirrors
Is there really an answer I am searching for?
So Princess Xia needs to shut down
Just for awhile
And take off this crown
That beauty which I once saw
Were all illusions in my head
In truth, its all a flaw
These hundreds of writes which I said were poetic
Are just words stringed together
It's all pathetic
I am no royalty
Not a princess for sure
Just plain me
Maybe I deserve a slap across the face
For chasing these wishes
Which were out of place
Not all wishes are meant to be caught
Some remain just that, wishes
That's what I have been taught
This is me
Riding the slope into depression
Becoming its detainee
