A jar kept tightly covered

Found its way into her hands

Its light was like no other

Glowing, golden, simply grand

She couldn’t wait to open

Take a peek, to look inside

What she found was magical

Their light was magnified

Releasing them into the air

They glistened, all around

She watched in awe, the beauty

Of the fairies she had found

Each one told their story

Of how they came to be

Thanking her a million times

For finally, setting them free

They gathered, on this magical night

Beings, made of glowing light

Scattered round the castle keep

Awakening those, once fast asleep

Their deepest desires, to return, the plan

Back to the fortress, where it all began

To once again grace, the place they did roam

Where spirits had played, in deep catacombs

Disenchanted by those, who chased them away

Enamored with others, who dare let them stay

In her thoughts, she could see only him

Hear the sound of his voice, a whisper

Sending shivers through her body

Her unassuming, unpretentious ways

Giving delight to his darkness

While deep inside of him, lurking

Where he found her most amusing

He would watch her from afar

Never close enough for her to feel

He was merely a distant pleasure

In the madness of her mind

I’m selfish
I try to let go
And find myself
Still hanging on
It’s not easy
You know
It becomes a part
Of oneself
Until it breaks
And breaks, again
The pieces falling
Haphazardly
Endlessly
And when I try
Hopelessly
To hang on to
What I never let go of
I find it’s really me
Falling apart

Cocooned in hoarfrost

A flower sleeps, awaiting

Til spring’s cradling warmth
