Fallen Prince's Lament

Fallen Prince's Lament

A Poem by Crysta K Coburn
"

Love and its uncertainty.

"
Every prince must have his princess
One must be saved to be set free
If it's the prince who does the rescue
Then what are you to me

If the prince is locked in the tower
Does the princess scale the wall
If he refuses to trust his lover
Will the two of them then fall

When the prince has lost his kingdom
Will the princess come behind
Will she follow in his footsteps
Is it love that keeps her kind

If I take a breath and follow
Though a princess I can't be
If every prince must have his princess
Then what are you to me?
