i hope you dance

I’m not pretty enough

to be a princess.

Only the beautiful

can wear a crown.

I’m not brave enough

to be a knight.

Only the strong

can carry a sword.

I’m not quick enough

to be a bandit.

Only the fast

can live on the run.

I’m not meek enough

to be a servant.

Only the kind

can always wait.

I’m not quiet enough

to find my place.

Only the dead

can all coexist.
