Damsel in Distress?

Cloudy thoughts
What were they?
Locked in a tower
But why?

Busy hands
What are they doing?
Knotting rope
But what for?

It's a girl, she looks determined.
But where's the knight in shining armor?
The prince,
Where is he?

She can't escape without him...

 

Right?

A wicked grin
Why?
A rope ladder hanging out the window
Is this for what I think it's for?

A long climb down
Why didn't she wait for her prince charming?
She prepares to fend for herself
From what?

The damsel was in distress

she didn't need a man.
