Singing, Soaring Azure

I was mesmerized by the pattern of your eyes.

The ashen residue

of what grace once was

trails behind you,

drizzles of faerie dust

intent on luring

hearts hollowed by greed,

one possessed by me,

to meadows where the

azure sings.

Mesmerized

by the pattern of your eyes,

I longed to find

what truly lay behind

those gracious,

ever-too-distant,

azure wings.

So pretty, it kind of reminded me of The Girl Who Stole The Sun, only softer.
Well played. ^^

i love how you use the idea of faeries here to show a longing and emotions that go unrequited. "hearts hollowed by greed" so true.

[Tai Ryens]

I myself find butterflies and faeries to compliment one another like sugar and cake. Thank you for reading.

at first, i think of darkness, pain, deception. then, of hope and willingness, perhaps naievity, or carelessness. like a siren's song your figure's beautiful blueness feigns perfection, drawing in the lost and unfotunate. any caution of the figure is cast aside in the second stanza, overcome by foolishness or hope or both. great write

NicNice one Tai

To me, the entire piece is filled with depressed longing and grief. It has an air of beauty to it that you add flawlessly, but it's dark and hollow at the same time. I like it a lot.

in an event i find the first stanza darkly written..
were you posses dark emotions...
the second was hopeful for romance...
hoping to heal your greedy nature...

dark and hopeful peice!

I'm glad you almost discovered my true emotions; though in the second stanza I lean towards a more . . . depressed angle. Well, thank you for your thoughts, I appreciate it.

oh...yes the longing... seems like unrequited love isn't it...
and your most welcome...
