Queen

As I step down my throne
Walk with grandeur
Softly, quietly on my tip toes
Through the veranda leading into my room

I place my sparkling crown
Onto the antique wooden vanity
You come knocking at my door
Pleading to open the doors
To let me hear your importune

I dress in rush to open big doors
I stand to see you glaring at me
With your teary eyes
I gently reach, pat your shoulders
Smile at you to ask
What is it that I can do to ease your distress?

You stumble, you stammer
The feeble word you then whisper
I’m hurting and no one cares
So, I come to you for seeking justice
“You are the humble queen”
“Preacher of divine love”
“You are the iron pillar”
“With a bleeding tender heart that knows to cry”
You say so gently to me

As I smile at your complaining compliments
I still don’t understand what you want?
You once said, “you can’t say no”
Love is all it takes to make someone happy
You are strictly against breaking already bleeding heart
For love so pure
You would get off your throne
And never wear your crown
If you were in love with an ordinary person like me
This is what I want you to have to remember

The time has come to show me, you’re a true royalty
Who never backs out on her spoken words
You would cut yourself with the sharpest sword
If you had to ever choose between
Your kingdom over a human being.

I’m no knight and shine
But you are the almighty queen
I wanted to let you know
Before you order for me to be thrown
I loved you from the first moment
And will do so until my last.
I’ve said it
Now it’s your turn
Kill me if you must
But my spirit will still haunt
You every day and night

Speechless, abhorred, yet confused
I think to myself, how can a queen
Be with an ordinary person
My heart immediately whispered
Before you were made queen
God sent you as a human being

I walk away from him
In silence, no peaking sound
Dressed in royal blue
Back to my throne
Called on everyone
To make an announcement

I love everyone
My kingdom means my life
I’ve ruled over long period of time
Little I knew
I also ruled your heart
The power of mine
Is even beyond my own imagination
I never knew the span
Of my strength being your inspiration
Now that I know
This man before us
Is weakened on his knees
He says I rule him, inside and out
He’s at my mercy today
I have the power to regret
He will be heart broken
But smilingly will die for me

Yes now it’s my turn
I hereby get off my throne
Kiss it with passion
Lay my jeweled crown
In the center of the throne
For I’ve the courage to walk away
From all the luxuries and riches
To be with my man
Who has all the tender love for me
Only just for me
I only gave up the throne
But I’m still an almighty queen
Ruling the most precious possession
A man’s heart
That ‘s now taken
By none other than his queen.

    -fresh-original- exotic? :D

    I very much enjoyed this, the style and content are original and the story line is enticing and alluring..

    A very much loved the title 'queen' in this plot, very effective.


    I adore how you often leave the insignificant words out, and keep the flow consistent... You know, lots of writers throw in article words like 'and, the, to, so, just, only' alot.. But you don't do that... That shows more effort and thought put into your work..

    Well done, and great penning!

    I like all poetry that encourages honesty, equality between men and woman, for love is not a competition, as sex is to compliment, not control, one's spirit as it sings in harmony with another...
    I like how you use poetry to express where on your sacred journey you are at any given moment. That's awesome. I sometimes use poetry to journal my heart. But you use a story form I might experiment with at some point.

    Sadly lacking

    It seems as though you strive towards a point that you never quite reach, fluctuating between pretentious snobbery and coquetish drivel. Just becuase you spend five pages grasping towards dignity and respect doesn't mean you're getting it. This is sadly lacking in substance and consists of fluffs of over-fancy words and badly linked phrases.

All I can say thanks for stopping by and hope you don't waste anymore of your precious time off of your precious life on reading my poems, which I'm sure you won't Thanks again for stopping by Blade Dancer.

    Bitter, once again you have surpassed all expectations. Sometimes you have to follow your heart and not do what is expected of you in order to find happiness....Thank you for reminding us all of that.
    Keep up the nice work.

    Thy Queen of Hearts

    A Queen; Ruler of many,
    Giving thy throne to another
    For the romance of thine Prince
    To set thy heart free; elope
    To live in blissful harmony, enveloped
    Evermore; With thy King.
    Thy heart is yours, O, bless'd
    Queen of hearts.

    Great write. Loved the images portrayed here
    Well done.

    awesome

    the man there made one major decision. him, being a commoner, he understood that the society that he lives in wouldn't allow, but even being enslaved, he gave his heart for love, even if he will suffer...love will do that and when the heart's given...that's one major price that's paid...awesome write and very thought provoking
