A Dark Fairy-Tale

A Dark Fairytale As I was chained, I breathe in. As I was burned, I breathe out. As I was cut, I looked down. As I was broken, I looked up. As I was destroyed, I closed away. I had killed myself damaging beyond any repair. To keep myself closed I chain, cut, burned, and destroyed what was within me, isolation my fear around me. But suddenly as I had nearly been kindled to a shivering light, something braver and stronger then I appeared and took me and held me and once again I was fixed and this is what happened; Suddenly I breathed in as I was unchained. Suddenly I breathed out as my burns disappeared. Suddenly I looked up as my broken body mended. Suddenly I looked down as my cuts faded. Suddenly I was opened up and my destruction was nothing more then a dream As my knight, you entered that shadow and held me now I grow with a unprofaned radiance. I was held once more, and my soul emerged. I was spoken to once more, and my mind went blank. I was kissed and my body reacted without a second hesitation. And before I could run away once more, I was trapped. Unlike my prison I lived in a fairytale, in were I don’t want to live this place anytime soon. What happened then and what happening now are so fair apart it hilarious. I’ve forgiven the past, not forgotten it. Prove never to make the same mistakes or else be locked back inside that tower I call my mind. Let me in brave knight, into your mysterious ways. Let me in brave knight let me have secret passages into that world of yours. Let me in brave knight so I can truly capture you. I was as cold as ice even more then winters hail, but you with a ridged past that icier then I could have imagined is as warm as the summer sun and sweet like spring air. For saving me, for taking my heart, for releasing me, I’ll become everything you want and then more, I’ll stand by your side and hold you like you held me and I shall be everything you need. My sweet Knight.
