Poetry: For One So Young in Creative Writing

For One So Young

For one so young
Lies a heart so grown.
Years of heartache
And love unknown.

I feel with my heart
With eyes open wide.
I dream of a princess -
With her by my side.

She has not come fore
From the ranks of the many.
I wonder if she’s there -
I wonder if there’s any.

I’ll wait till the day
That she does appear.
I’ll wait till tomorrow
Or a hundred years.
