You call me a princess

but I=m not sure you should

you see

I=m not your average princess

I=m not tall and beautiful

I=m no longer blonde

I don=t usually dress all in pink

my name=s not Cinderella

or Rapunzel

or Aurora

or Belle

just simply Jennie

or Jen will sometimes do

I=m not your average princess

short black hair

and darker clothes

are more my style

plastic rimmed glasses

and black eyeliner

I=m not your average princess

but like many fairy tale princesses

I was locked in a tower

of my own insecurities

and loneliness

and you came and saved me

swept me off my feet

and we lived happily ever after

and I guess that makes me

just another average princess.
