Female

A little girl not yet grown enough to know
sits waiting
thinking

When is my prince charming going to appear?
Is he going to be tall and white
ride a white horse and sweep me away
create rose petals when he walks by?

A teenager grown and thinks she knows
sits waiting
thinking

When is he going to arrive?
Is he going to come wearing red
ride his scooter out for our date
and whisper sweet nothings in my ear?

A woman grown and doesn�t want to know
sits waiting
thinking

When is he going to explain?
Is he going to smile and nod
pretend that she doesn�t exist
buy me roses then forget it all?
