gone

i wrote this last year about a dream i had.

in the forest he met his misfortune  

in the shape of a boy so fair  

he had shy blue eyes and a lying tongue  

and flowers in his long dark hair  

he traced his scars  

and kissed his head  

and promised he'd never leave  

but when he woke  

the boy was gone  

oh how could he be so naive  

in a daze of frustration he scratched at his skin  

not pretty not perfect  

alone  

he started to bleed as tears fell from his eyes  

fading, fading  

gone

Bittersweet and lovely. I'd only mention to watch out for capitalization's. Other than that, this was great. Well done :)
