HAPPiLY NEVER AFTER

HAPPiLY NEVER AFTER

Cocooned... Naivety locked inside
A veil of innocence... Worn with pride
Take me now to be your bride
Hearts as one... I'm mesmerised

To a magical land... I'll happily roam
Isolation lost; no longer alone  
The bowels of the earth; no longer my home 
My sacrifice? It's ME you'll own

Grass always greener on the other side
All I wanted? 'To be that bride!'
Ghost train from hell;  I hitched that ride
Fantasy's forgotten. Dreaming died

Iridescent wings; lifeless and frail
Rings bound us together; imaginary jail
Passionless, weary, skin thin and pale
Honour, obey. No release on bail

The fairy tale ends, it wasn't for me
Even though...I'm  a nominee!
The winner is... For this years BAFTA

'The Fairytale- Happily Never After!'

I agree with Angel, a wonderful piece Maddison.  Such a creative idea and fantastical imagery that embraced the whole sad emotion.  A great ending by the way, perfect, a winning performance.  Loved it! A vote and nom from me:)

Dear Maddison Law,

An excellent write, Beautiful lines, I love it.

Iridescent wings; lifeless and frail
Rings bound us together; imaginary jail
Passionless, weary, skin thin and pale
Honour, obey. No release on bail

Maddison,

A trip to wonderland you took us all on and thanks to you neither of us felt alone...A fantasy, fairy tale that captivated all readers and as you we too were held captive in your world of imagination, although not only by you but by your poem as well....My lines of interest, although the entire poem took me away are as follows: 

Grass always greener on the other side
All I wanted? 'To be that bride!'
Ghost train from hell;  I hitched that ride
Fantasy's forgotten. Dreaming died...

Iridescent wings; lifeless and frail
Rings bound us together; imaginary jail
Passionless, weary, skin thin and pale
Honour, obey. No release on bail...

Sincerely,

Jim

You make me sick!

You make me sick!

Take a breath, breath real slow
Let it out, the past will go
Exhale the pain and the stench...

Hooked

Hooked like a fish from the depths of the sea
Body, now belongs to me
Powerless in spirit...
