The Phantom of the Opera

The Phantom of the Opera

A Poem by Lady Of Darkness
"

The title speaks for itself.

"

 

 

The Phantom of the Opera

Disguised as her dark angel

Mysterious teacher of the night

 

Musician and magician

Her ardent lover of mistrust

Hiding in self pity and disgust

 

Master of enchantment

Composer of her songs

Her voice the only heaven he has known

A story has yet to unfold

 

The Phantom of the Opera

Distorted and deformed of face

Hides in a mask of pain

While in hell his soul remains

 

While fair maiden and Knight

Share a love deep into the night

Saves her from darkness

Back towards the light

 

Don Juan Triumphant

The last performance is set

While the theatre’s cast into flames

His true forms revealed

 

The final stage is in motion

Leading lady fights for two souls

While hero gazes on in despair

She makes a decision that’s saves them both

 

Beauty has tamed the beast

While they disappear he whispers

 

(You alone can make my soul take flight

It’s over now the music of the night.)

The story line was really good. I've always loved the phantom of the opera and this poem does it justice. Nice work.

Ahhhh.... I agree. Breathtaking.
Truly beautiful.
You've captured the characters in such savage beauty.
I was completely engrossed from beginning to end.
This movie has always brought tears to my eyes.
To me, the Phantom was stunning. His intensity, just the way he lived...
You've captured this. Brava! My hat off to you!
