Princess

She's trembling,
She's twitching,
You don't know what you're missing.
Her hands are cold,
Her body's lifeless,
..Isn't this your "Perfect Princess"?

She wants you now,
She needs your vow,
The very thing you won't allow.
She's letting go,
You're still at home.
I promise
you'll regret this.

You know she's cold,
Bitter and far too bold,
[She needs only your hand to hold!]
..And you know of what comes next,
I see you're far from vexed...

You wanted this to happen.
You want the plot to thicken,
You want her heartbeat
To be quickened.


...But what if she wants out?
She could be rid of all this doubt!
And learn to walk different route.
She needs no more fears,
No lies, or nighttime tears...

She's ready to scream it out
And suddenly,
You don't know what it's all about.
Yet, you still refuse to listen
So she walks away
And keeps her distance...

[With one last sigh,]
[Her heart is freed.]

[[Is this what you truly need?]]

Author notes

I don't believe this is "dark" at all. (Much unlike most of my other work...)
To me, it represents letting go of the pain of being in love, and living life again. I actually feel..better, when I read this! If you read it a couple times over, I think you'll understand. =]

    I liked the fact that although it has elements of darkness, the overwhelming sense is life and love. Thanks for the entry
