Wanted: The Beast
I went and watched the new live action Beauty and the Beast today.
It made me teary in some parts, puzzled me in others, and was that little bit magical too.
Afterwards, what stuck with me was that I need a Beast in my life.
And no, before you start on the sex jokes, not like that.
The Beast, for the better part of the story, is what?
A gruff, crusty, scary exterior, with a soft and sweet inside.
See, I tried dating Beauty - that worked out not too well.
A pretty exterior with a vain, self-centered, egotistical and narcissistic interior.
Stay Beast always, I don't need the transformation to gorgeous Prince.
As long as the inside remains the gentle and kind giant.
Who will do things because it will make me happy,
Who will work for my happiness,
And treat me with care.
I will take a gruff and grumpy Beast with a crumbly and loving nature,
Over the suave, well-spoken handsome guy who woos you,
And then down the road, shows his true colors.
He can never get out of his own self to actually care for you.
So tata Prince Charming, Hello Beast!
