Wings of darkness, a symbol of despair.
Memories of life past, sparking regret.
Knew not the path I took, for addled it was,
My mind.
To soar high in the sky, was my wish immortal,
Prices I paid, with no second thought, for
A hindrance to me you were but,
My beau.
A flower is my throne, decievingly comfortable,
For the stalk is but a shadow, lifeless and false.
Colour deprived butterflies, are but images of,
My thoughts.
A pink mist surrounds me, is it undying love?
Orbs of light still glimmer, faintly though.
Darkness shall be my end, if you won't come for me,
My Love.
Come only if our love was true, for still
Unsure I'am that I deserve a new life. Love you.
Author notes
Picture 3
For those girls, who find their true love in their tender ages, but later ditch them just so that they can get a better life, a career, joining the rat race only to discover that true love is something that is above all kinds of professional achievement. This poem would apply to guys as well.. but had to use the feminine gender because of the pretty pink/black fairy in the picture.
The pink in the picture represents the love. The black represents all the false hope, the deciet and every other falsehood related with an awesome professional life. The girl is now at the best of her career( sitting on a throne of flowers, feeling like a Queen), but she knows it could all come down to earth some day because it was built on falsehood.
Her wings are signs of her achievement, but also of despair.
The butterflies in the picture are her thoughts, which were colourful before this life, but are now deprived of colour, as her thoughts are now deprived of happiness.
My love to Kimberly G, my nutty fairymother who so rightly suggested that I'd be able to write something good for this contest. allpoetry.com/poets/Fairy%20Nutty%20Buddy
