Sleeping Beauty

 

 

Sleeping beauty, so hopeless

In your desolate despair

Frozen within the loneliness

Deep in your fragile heart of glass.

 

So poisoned by the apple,

It's easy to get lost in your dreams.

Dreaming about the day he comes

Galloping from a far to your heart.

 

Sleep all the chaos away

Til that one day, your prince arrives

And a true love's first kiss,

Awakens your withering soul.

I love it! The picture compliments your words beautifully, although the imagery in your poem is just as wonderful by itself! The first stanza is a captivating way to begin the classic story of love...

You have written another stunning poem :)
Thank you so much for sharing!
