Dust arranged by multi-colored faeries
Sprinkle upon her back
To give her what she lacks
Prayed beautiful
In all of whats today
Give her these wings
Her soul to fly away
Love marks beauty
To those in which we see
Having these wings
Enables her to be
Bring comfort and worth
To those there all alone
Grace all of which her presence
Show them all compassion they deserve
Be it that their angel
Don't wonder around
Looking for ones you love
The gods disapprove
They reign from above
They'll cast down their others
And bring the dark sky's eyes
Rip those wings from thy back
Till all is gone
Dry eyed
She sees her true love
Walking lonely beneath the trees
He walks like wind
Moving gracefully
She moves her hand over those cheeks
One last time
The gods shake their heads
To her wings shall die
Ripped off of her once holy back
Leave thick red scars
Where they marked their path
The sky is gray
And the water is high
Waves to and fro
One then the other
Her screams you cannot hear
For the crash of water
Wash away her tears
She stands there lonely
For she wont be forgiven
She broke the law
Of the gods
Dust driven

I like this a lot, it has a sadness that hangs over it as she hung over her beloved. The flow is for the most part good and the story is told well. Thank you for entering, take care and good luck x

Thank you very much for entering this contest. I may add much more of a comment later on since there are so many other submissions.
You may want to keep in mind that I will try to open more of the same contests one after another if I can earn enough feedback to do so which I must say would be truly appreciated. Altogether, I hope this will also give everybody a glimpse at one of you're favorite accomplishments which hopefully in turn inspire them to look at what else you've got. -
the first lines of this poem deifinitely made me want to keep reading....this was amazing. i really liked it. my fav stanzas:
Ripped off of her once holy back
Leave thick red scars
Where they marked their path
The sky is gray
And the water is high
Waves to and fro
One then the other
Her screams you cannot hear
For the crash of water
Wash away her tears
She stands there lonely
For she wont be forgiven
She broke the law
Of the gods
Dust driven

Sprinkle upon her back
Those first lines were just breath taking,
Really.
I like the strpy you have told here, and how the mood really changes and shifts. It makes it a really enjoyable read:
She sees her true love
Walking lonely beneath the trees
He walks like wind
Moving gracefully
She moves her hand over those cheeks
One last time
The gods shake their heads
To her wings shall die
I also liked the subtle accidental, or maybe purposely....
anyways rhyme you used
it was nice<33
Thank you for entering
Goodluc
