A modern fairy tale
She wished she were a princess, living in a tower
 Waiting, wishing, hoping, for her prince
 He wished he had a girlfriend
 Who would go with him to the movies
 She pondered pricking her finger
 Or finding some friendly dwarfs
 He pondered taking a walk to the park
 Or even going to a party
 She decided to sit and wait awhile
 As the days grew longer
 He decided to venture out to seek
 And as he searched for his girl
 She fell asleep by the lake and dreamed
 To create her own fairy tale
 He fell down and did not want to get up
 Though bravely he ventured on
 She felt the night air through her dreams
 And she knew that her prince should be coming
 He felt that maybe he was delusional
 And he went home and played video games.
