damsel in distress

By Circe Avalon

why do I want that knight in armor
why do I search for him in vain
when at every turn I'm let down
in every man it's the same

I sob and sway for attention
but to no avail
nothing ever seems to work
but it's just as well

    nice, agrres with narc, i'm a knight but have no armor :) more of a tiger so i'm naked to show off my stripes, but yes indeed, love is found when one doth not wither the eyes of thine heart, do not cry love come hither and love shall come -symph-

    Not every knight rides in on a stead to sweep your heart away - typically these guys turn out to be jerks. You will find your true love just don't look - good luck - love the poem:)

    maybe its time for a new approach or a change of male types? i hope you find what you are looking for.
