spring;
golden light spilling from the heavens.
the flowers blossoming,
the air heady with perfume.
she sat in the fields,
flowers nestled between her palms,
and from her pretty lips, tumbled,
the music of the stars.
that’s when she fell:
princes of darkness,
came to take, came to save,
their beautiful princess.
palaces made of broken dreams,
haunting choruses,
a place where the crescent moon sat
her wicked edges gleaming.
and when she was found,
when the sunlight untangled her lashes, and blue skies kissed her cheeks once more,

a nightmare tailored in satin and lace,
where she was not a princess but a queen
of hell?
just when they thought she’d withered,
she bloomed,
and with her,
all the forgotten blossoms
of the universe.
