Jamais

This is for Hayden, my love. Taylor, my best friend. And Benjamin, my brother. I'm pretty sure you guys can figure this one out. In words it's so much different than in actuality.

Faded lipstick smiles, in photographs unseen

Cold, abandoned spirits, trapped in worlds between

Her silent whispers echo, as she dances with the trees

Sunshine moves across her face, memories crushed with autumn leaves

In a circle we sit, under her time spell

In my heart I rewrite the story, that she longs for me to tell

Forever I will sing her song, of wildflowers and crecent moons

Sunset falls upon us, in a splash of deep maroons

Now shadows of the present, prance in black cloaked dreams

I laugh a sweet goodbye, as we float home in moonlit beams

You have some amazing imagery here, but it seems like the poem is unfinished, like there is still something left to be said (the ending line doesn't scream finality) - or maybe that's just me wanting more haha. The second half of the poem gets a little bumpy in regards to meter, but other than that this is an enchanting write. Nicely done.

This had some very lovely imagery, I can see her dancing in the moonlight, a mysterious mistress of the night time. Beautiful work~
