Girls with milk-white legs
prance by in knee-high boots
They're pretty and wan
and lovely and thin
but I am the girl with cinders
on her cheeks.
My dresses are all dirty
my hair is an awful mess
my body is all curvy
and I can scarcely protest
Because after all
I'm a princess
And even if my prince
can't find me,
I'll let me blue eyes go gray and sad
and to fantasy land
I will lead the way.

I love this because it brings up so many emotions at once. It's a big soup of emotions and it leaves me with a sense of optimism.
