If you love something set it free. If it comes back it was meant to be.


Laying in the casket
For god knows how long
Stuck in never ending dark
From one poison apple
Waiting here in garbs of black and red
Out here for the world to see
Waiting on true loves first kiss
Always to be a gothic princess
Falling down the rabbits hole
Being told what I am
Following a strange man
Who says he knows me again and again
Off to slay the jabberwocky
Who knows what time shall behold
In garbs of red and black
Out here for the world to see
Waiting on true loves first kiss
Always to be a gothic princess
First mom then dad
Now I spend the day cleaning
Wishing for a way out of there treachery
When a fairy appears and gets me away to the princes ball
I leave a shoe as a clue
Waiting here in garbs of black and red
Out here for the world to see
Waiting on true loves first kiss
Always to be a gothic princess
Finally true loves first kiss has come over me
Slowly I wake up from the misery
Pale white and ice cold now
Seeing the sun for the first time in forever now
I ride off in the sunset with the charming prince
Only to realize I’d rather be
Waiting here in garbs of black and red
Out here for the world to see
Waiting on true loves first kiss
Always to be a gothic princess

I love the dark and gloomy side of things. I hope that when people read this they find that what they think they want they might not actually want.

Could you look at my work 'Dear Death?' It doesn't match your strange and wonderful eloquence, but I would love to see your reaction to it.

You're most certainly welcome. The poem is quite beautiful, and I adore its unique quality and creative story. I applaud you for it.
