In the world of icy dreams an endless nightmare grows Through plains of frozen sanity it weaves its song of woes A lullaby of sweet content that takes the Warmth once bound It fills her soul with iciness and sends her dancing 'round Spiraling through the evermore with empty thoughts so pale Lost amongst the snowy ebbs Love wears a lonesome veil Angels weep from distant clouds they pray for her return Further through the wilderness she laughs at their concern Enchantments cast to sway the spell to break phantasm's chill Chasing through the twilight fields they kiss her heartless will A shield of sorrow sends them back through halls of crystal white Love cares nothing of the past but trembles at the sight A streaming ray of Hope from some unseen memory Gently so she notices this timeless entity She gazes into eyes of fire that melts away the grief A sword of truth to set her free and blind the soulless thief Taken in and banished back the nightmare ends its reign Love returns her gift to all forever to remain |
I've gotta agree with Blue Monk there, but I'm definitely gonna sugar-coat the pastry a bit more. I loved, loved, LOVED the rhythm of this - almost dream-like, sorta like a fantasy. I could almost feel the chill and cool rush of attraction, probably just because of how it's written. But, yeah, some details here and there could throw the reader off...though, perhaps it's selective. | Posted on 2014-10-08 00:00:00 | by MyPeriodical | [ Reply to This ] | Very classy sounding, and like I commented on Dale's pieces, I like poetry about women and goddesses in particular. The use of "frozen" twice in the first stanza threw me off a little, but this has a nice roll to it. I also like happy endings. | Lloyd | Posted on 2013-02-16 00:00:00 | by Blue Monk | [ Reply to This ] | |
