Snowfield

A Poem by Alskar

Passed. Lifting life to melting stars.
Wishes fade, so has fire.
Lost in the continuum of the numb.
One in the world of all.
White where magic bloomed.
Periwinkle washed frost, and
Heroes held static, while
Air struggles to breathe.
Beneath the statue prince
Tokened with fair delight
His offering to the falling.
Warm the abdicated,
Comfort her starless heart.
Last lips, her timeless saviour
Before accepting what’s left behind.
Cold caging chest.
Kneeling in glitter daggers
That cease when left alone,
The prince just stares.

Acceptance brought her justice
With soft flame on pale ears
His life blew into her world,
Shining, weeping glass moons,
Cerises through the paper land,
Exploding bleak and 
Scopes with no adventure.
Lights rise, and daggers
Haunt another world.
Princess, spread amongst the 
Spectrum of life, waits.
Shudder, quake,
Eyes her colour move.
Hat as her crown, she rose.
Saving her, he gazed.
Smiles played, and royals of
The snowfield married with a wish,
Stars bright and healed above,
Danced as time aged beyond
Periwinkle leaves. 
The prince twirled his lover
A cry of new dawn to the sky,
Blurring, water colour palette,
Melting once again, as the prince
Caught his love in his arms,
Her crown slipping without care.
Then.
Snow.
Awake, the princess blanked
And waits for years amongst the daggers.

Very well written. I love the subject matter and style. I think it might be a little long.. But I also have a short attention span. :)

There is very delicate, elegant and epic, all qualities I would wish upon such poetic ambition my new friend!

It sometimes twirled in a way that I did not expect or see coming.
