Look at her now....

Look at her now....

A Poem by Knight, not a Saint

Look at her now
There she
goes...
I walk past her,
But she doesn't know...
She's a valley
I'll prevent the fall into
Sleeping with a memory,
I'll crawl away from you...
The ghost of my past haunts me...
The sight of her taunts me
My heart wrenches with a yearn
For the one,
Whom i may never earn...

Look at her now,
There she smiles....
Admiration overwhelms for a while
She's my butterfly...
Would love to hold her,
But she better fly
She must never stumble
She must never cry...
But her thoughts must be thrown
From the mind of a king,
Who's lost his throne
'Cause reason flows crystal clear
No more can i fight my fears


The ghost of my past haunts me
The sight of her taunts me
Now that i have  chosen to run
Must forget the one,
Whom i may never earn....
Whom i may never earn.....

I love the acceptance and realization of a courtship that just may never be. Though I'm not fond of connecting three metaphors with almost zero connection to one another (unless it's a personal meaning, of course; if so I empathize), I commend you for having chosen them specifically. Next time, you should either use only one metaphor or connecting ones (i.e. a tree and its leaves, or a bird and its song, or perhaps the flow of both water and music).
