Description
Crumbs
from a slice
of life
left behind
to remember,
eaten up
by birds
of the past.

This way
I lost
one path,
found a thousand
white trees,
a woman asleep
pale as the moon,
surrounded
by stale tears.

In dreams
she waits;
in reality
I wonder:
can I save her
does she want
my love
still?
I have no horse
I have no reign.
Nothing to give
but a kiss
and the rotting castle
of my heart.

Long shadows
bruise the ground,
as I let fear
hold my hope.
Around us
poisonous roses
bloom inviting -
what kind of curse
is to believe
and lose,
what kind of evil
will promise
and steal.

The sad wolf
of loneliness
howls
through skin and bones,
I shiver
clasping blood red
upon my shoulders -
I understand
what the winds
are screaming:
these woods
won’t let us both dream,
it’s the eerie comfort
of one eternal night
or the key
to something uncertain
and frail.

When my name
trembles close
to her lips,
crystal shards
pierce the sun
back to life.
Suddenly
her eyes of gold,
sweet homes,
are mine again -
and so
I pray
forgive me
princess,
if once upon a time
I couldn't find the courage
to let you go.
