She is a Fairy Tale

She is a Fairy Tale
made for his eyes
woven together
before they
existed

He is a promise
given to her
by an imagination
procreated
through a
school girl's dream

She became
an acquisition
a bounty
a prized
possession
that he 
could not
possess

The unobtainable
drove
his interest

it enslaved 
him
to her 
presence

It made
him
understand
the treasure
that she 
became

a soul worthy
of respect
and
reverence

Union made
time took
what once
were

but it
was commitment
 that sealed
it for eternity
long after 
the butterflies
left
