Prince Charming

You can give your everything
and with all you have you can try,
but in the search for the perfect man
he just may be impossible to find.
But you continue down the aisles
with thousands beckoning your name
and it is here where you will find him:
written on a page.
He's vibrant and he's noble,
he's a knight in disguise,
every time he speaks to you
he looks into your eyes.
He always says the perfect thing
to make you fly above the sky,
through your ups and downs and smiles and frowns
he never leaves your side.
But when the story's finished
he will go back on the shelf,
and you must go back to reality
and live the life you're dealt.
You'll never find another man
who is exactly what you need,
because the only place you can find this man
is on the pages that you read.

(**Note: I don't normally write rhyming poetry, but I just let the words write themselves on this one.**)

  1. Bravo! Rarely do you find rhyming poetry that isn't corny, but you hit this one out of the park!
