Sleeping Beauty

Folder: 
My Works

I'm still here...

Still living in this dream world.

No matter how hard I try to surface..

I can't let go, of this slumber.

Laying here..

with all these marveled thoughts,

sweet like sugar.

No day will break my stone closed eyes.

I know nothing of time,

nor age,

or youth.

Years float by,

and I stay dreaming.

Age does not touch this porcelain face.

Beauty stays as is,

and a legend sleeps soundly.

While the ever evil thorns

keep growing still yet.

Thoughts of lovers fill my head.

Candy-coated fantasies,

float around my bed.

Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed,

to come to break this dream?...

I sleep here for centuries

and I have never changed.

No savior hath come for me yet.

I wait in my dream realm,

for true loves first kiss.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this as an analogy on myself, but named it after a story book character, I guess she and I have more in common than I thought. =)
