The Oohs and Ahhs

Curtains unveils minds never at ease
Turning pictures; illusion's reflections
Draped in costumes of fairy tales;
Fairy wands, and glass shoes.
Cherry lips smile in perfection,
As rabbits hopped behind the running clock
in a daze, to an audience of none.
Cheerful voices inside;
Ceaseless emotions taking stage
Staring back; dark eyes in red and gold,
Powder lingers as dust on an enchanted warfare
Between the curtains and life.
Dances stayed in rhythmic echoes
Losing grip on gravity,
More laughter, more tears, more applause;
More lights.

The Rainbow Cycle

She peeps through violet eyes,
lost in sparkles of liquid, she lies in crumpled bliss
As he leaves her behind.
Her visions returns her to the rosy hues;
Shades of Indigo in her looking glass
As she lay amongst the flowers,
Petals softly by her side.
The blues of the ocean, so deep and so vast
Reaching towards the sky in great volumes
Hauntings of paradise in far away lands.
Creepers of green entangles in the mind
She remembers the emeralds of old
Laid upon her breast; a burden not forgotten.
Yellow sunshine in her face
as she runs with arms wide open
Sunflower fields guarding her despair.
She watches the sun sets
Each setting sun dims the day
She does not remember how to rise
As the sky turns red.
She trembles in her painted lips.
Danger awaits; love in disguise.
