I hate roses
And fake promises.
Gold that replaces
The blood of hearts.
I hate guys that
Have money to
Mask away
Their faults.
To be kind
To be firm
To be humble
Those guys are hard to find.
But a king
Must be such.
As queen I must have
Such a partner.
I am the princess
The one above all.
The crown on my head
Bestows me the throne.
The throne I can
Rule alone without men.
But the kingdom
Cannot do without a suitable king.
The music rings
The food is sweet.
The champagne rich
And the dancers alive.
They are beautiful
All graceful
Handsome
And royal.
It makes me sick
To look at them.
Their hungry eyes
Burning into my throne.
Someone new has
Entered the ball.
My attention has turned
He was different.
A satin suit
Leather shoes
Golden chains
And a jeweled crown.
He looked the same
If slightly better
But the way he held
Himself.
Tall but slightly
Humble.
Shy yet a little
Powerful.
He would do.
I danced with him
That night.
Only him.
He was funny
Charming
Handsome
And very kind.
He was everything
I wanted
For my kingdom's
King.
Maybe even
For me.
He was so docile
So in need of protection.
I smiled
I would give
Him that
Protection.
A distant chiming
Rang in my ear.
The castle clock.
Midnight's stroke.
He turned away
A look of fear
On his face
Of total dismay.
He ran away from
The castle.
I ran after him.
He didn't look back.
Midnight's hour I stand alone.
Holding a leather shoe
The last link
To him.
And fake promises.
Gold that replaces
The blood of hearts.

Literature
I'm No Princess
What if Cinderella threw the slipper,
Snow White said "Gimmie one more bite"-
And Sleeping Beauty went back to sleep?
What if Rapunzel cut her hair,
Mulan never got found out,
And the princess couldn't feel the pea?
What if Belle ran away,
Ariel decided to not to stay-
And there was no 'Happily Ever After'?
What if they all said no
Just wandered on Home
Left their princes on their knees?
I'm no princess- I have to earn my happily ever after.
There aren't any princes lined up at my door-
I'm not what they call "beautiful".
I'm just me- and that's all I'll ever be.
Literature
The King and Queen
I'll be the Queen of Fall,
with red oak leaves in my birch wood hair,
and kisses that taste like maple syrup.
I'll dub you my King of Catch,
to hold me when the Winter fae come clawing at my door,
and the glittering wings of winter breaths carry depression through my lungs.
We'll make love on drizzling April afternoons,
and warm June evenings, when even the sun is reluctant to go to sleep.
We'll have princesses and princes
of Spring and Summer
who's eyes glitter like frost on willow limbs,
and minds bloom like violet petals.
Thunderclaps will be our drum beat,
when we hold concerts for the cicadas and whispering grass.
Lightning
Literature
no prussian blue lullabies
'electric blue' has never done your eyes justice.
electricity has been tamed, with all of her secrets thrown open in the autopsy; her rebellions are short-lived despite their charred aftermath. it's all about the attention, really; she knows that her spine is chained to backbreaking circuits, her fingers to fast-fading bulbs and her words to delicate sparks. she barely protests any more, accepting her confinement and tirelessly pumping, breathing her energy into those objects that crave her life.
but your irises, boy, have never known the rein.
they are the glint of ice in the arctic, the head-on crash of poolwater with the sun. they are t
