The Queen

A traegic love story about a powerful queen

Shh. Listen,

As the winds blows the dust,

To an ill-fated story of love.

About a Queen of all

With no peer nor equal

Who wished to marry the Sun.

 

She climbed so high

For the apple of her sky

Until her and her Sun

Stood side-by-side.

 

She puckered her lips,

Then closed her eyes.

And moved towards her lover

Like a teenage bride.

 

She then kissed the Sun

And burned off her tongue

Her eyes were welded shut.

 

She blindly stumbled

Away from her love

To return to the place

From where she had come.

 

As a muted wife

Who had no eyes

Her subjects plotted

To take her life.

 

They tied her up

In view of her Sun

And burnded his bride alive.

 

From ash to ash

And dust to dust

The Queen's remains

Still lives with us.

 

She quietly tells

Her story of love

To those who listen

And dream too much.

Wow. That's so tragic... I love it though. I love stories that are sad, and you're great at telling sad stories apparently. Keep it up.

Wow! I really like this has all the right elements of an timeless love story. From loving or wanting something you can't have to a tragic loss to a hopeful ending. Great job but then again I'm not surprised when it comes to you.
