Soul Mate

In forgotten dreams a lonely phoenix gives its last breath to birth an ancient spell. An egg that is forged from her heart This last act of innocence Will gives hope to a love caged in a world, surrounded by winters cold. Silently love waits for the fires lament that will free a shimmering soul. An apparition of emotion searching for a hand that may not exist, fuelled only by hope and desire. This spell that was born in royal veins corrupted with ancestors curse , conspires to cheat the reapers hand. For life is suspended. Beauty is in league with time, her decay is absorbed by the mirror that deceives the dandies puff. A mirror that we all possess. No claims from the souls inside Only a united bond that peers into paradise. Reflections of the truth are frozen, for statues are blind and the birds of love stare back in silence, destined to find no mate. Creation must till this soil forward for the stars were born to life. The darkness where she resides is but a stormy night. And tomorrow will bring the light. The beating wings of myth perfumes her chamber with the smell of dragons dare. The soul of youth this warmth of man Resides behind these turquoise eyes of the last seed of a noble race. Desire and passion feed the furnace within But love turns breath into summers wind and the earth is stirred to life A molten stream from an unborn star Rages forth from a barren womb And the heat of desire cracks the egg that brings pardon to this birth Gods awaken, their crowns go dim As Eve rises slowly born to taste a golden fire . One kiss from his virgin lips and her heart will beat again, To be the first to see this Eve Is written in the mirror To look into her eyes A secret love revealed The joy of tasting an angels soul the marriage of hearts as one. But touch her face and gather her stare And love will seek the truth For Eve will pay her dues Love is found in the seconds of the clock And loneliness is forever She belongs to humanities dream of Romeo and lovers grief. Dragons kiss will feel her heart These seconds of ecstasy will shed his wings The warmth of life is ticking. and now the key is turning. A dragon chained by love, can never be free and he became her crystal. A royal statue to a lover’s dream Whose kingdom she commands. Snared in a dream forever He will find no cold in love. All will spend eternity gazing upon their goddess Enslaved by the reflection in the mirror And what of Eve . Tears of snow turn into ice as the heat of life subsides. The cry of phoenix Remembered in the prism of light While the silence of death continues to call , hidden In the darkness between the Stars And the gods will pay tribute in statue To a woman that gods and mortals cannot touch Where beauty resides forever In a heart protected by the stars and the shimmer Upon the pool of life. And her name will be the last soul to die For she is Medusa Queen of all that we love.
