She watched the ships
from her room in the tower
as she waited for her rescue
for a hero to set her free
like he did in the storybooks
that she had read as a child.
The maiden in waiting
the knight in shining armour
coming to slay the dragons
and banish the demons
to break down the door
of this room where she slept alone
under lock and key.
These days that never seemed to end
and the nights that lasted forever
where her dreams always turned to nightmares
and she always awoke to the loneliness.
She longed for someone to hear her cries
longed to hear the gallop of hooves
and the swish of the sword.
Many years had passed
but time stood still, here in limbo
where nothing was real
and nobody knew her name
She stayed hidden behind this mask
locked in these chains, just a prisoner
waiting for someone to show her the way
show her how to stand on her own two feet
and walk through that locked door
that always held her here
in this world of chastity
this world without love
this world that she couldn't understand
she had read so many stories
of different worlds and far away places
tales of love and tales of joy
and she longed to know how it felt to breath
but every day she watched from her room in the tower
as the sailing ships went by.
