Little miss prima donna
No power in her hands
Begging for the life she led
Once Upon a Time so grand

Naked hand with fingers bare
Baubles no longer define
A kingdom filled with memories there
Once Upon a Time divine

An empty spirit weighs her down
Pride now filled with chagrin
Her name no longer is renowned
A Once Upon a Time has-been

Ever a woman of wealth and means
Now lying on the bed she’s made
No tiara for this fairy tale queen
Her Once Upon a Time betrayed

Emerald green, a color, so splendid

Red headed beauty, she sits there alone

Surrounded by a lily, reflecting her aura

Day after day, she stays by her throne

The queen of the fey, jewels on her neck

Barely clothed, she is a spirit, so free

Casting her joy, on those who go by

Night after night, this is where she shall be

Should you ever make it past her way

Yet, do not see her by her chair

Smile and bow your head to her

She always knows you are there

She is
A frozen beauty
In the night
The aurora
Of lights

Shimmering

Cold

Dark

Deadly

A vision
Reflecting
Jewels
Gleaming
The crown
She holds

Alluring

Her offer

Enticing

Accept it, and she will freeze
Your soul

King Harold had quite the excursion

Left the Queen, with her own diversion

He met up with this lady, all seems a bit shady

Now Harold’s the king of perversion

Friday Fantasy ~ Cast Away – #dark #fantasy #poetry

Death becomes, a beauty posed

Once a queen, is now deposed

Cast away, in the forest, deep

Left to linger, in eternal sleep

Ashen faced, she disapproves

Of a body that no longer moves

Dressed in burial clothes, she lies

Refusing to ever close her eyes
