The Dark PrinceA Poem by Jane Winters Rogers
The Jezebel
I have met a dark prince at night he's On the prowl,, you can bar your doors And windows but he'll get you any how For he get's inside your mind Casting his oh so tempting spell Using charm and wit that at first Seem to do no harm. Yet soon You too have caught his fire while He takes you for a roller coaster Ride and before you know it you Don't remember who you are When his wild ride is over he Pulls to a jarring, bruising Stop he casts you out in the dark Confused and hurting not quite sure Where You are. Slowly you recover enough To wipe the soot off your modest Dress only to discover that the Dress you wear is scarlet red, Everything about you has been Changed and as the roller coaster Changes gears and the dark prince begins To pull away you say the ancient Name that he screams from His black pit he laughs at your Stupidity, you'll never be the same © 2015 Jane Winters Rogers |
