Fairy Tales

My entry to The Writer's Cramp daily contest

Rage rapidly into evanescence

A once clear image now blurred

Search for any light... the slightest incandescence

Too late... that bridge is burned



A princess atop a towering tower

Trapped in a metaphoric mist

Use all of my power

To experience your euphoric kiss



I'm stair bound, no elevator

Your embrace is my inspiration

I'd climb a thousand flights to elevate her

No stops, no outside temptations



Love...one thought, two souls 

Together...three syllables

Hope... four letters and our goal

For ever...we're indelibly etched symbols
