Traits of the Fey

Demonically sinister 

Angelically fair 

Such are the traits of the Fey 

Pale pale skin 

Luminescent wings 

Cold cold eyes 

Twisted smiles 

Such are the traits of the Fey 

Earning your trust 

Then quickly betraying it 

Supporting your needs 

Then stabbing you in the back 

Such are the traits of the Fey 

They are visible 

But not tangible 

These malicious creatures 

Are your dark side 

Whispering treacherous words 

Corrupting your judgement 

Flitting inside your own soul 

Such are the traits of the Fey

All of it true. In my eye's anyway. You could say I'm a Fae expert (well not really...I've just read a LOT of books about them) They are deceptive, trust stealing, beautiful and horrifying all at the same time. They're all pretty much like this, it's in their nature, but not all of them will stick to their behavours.
Wondeful poem! Love it

I should keep this in mind to tell my future children as a fairy tale when they are being naughty, heh. Well done.

The line "Such are the traits of the Fey" make this poem sound kind of fairytale-ish, like you're telling a story from way back when. :) But, it speaks rather clearly and details are not missed, infact, they are perfectly defined. Really good job, Rhea. :)

Wow! Very very well done I love the almost singsong voice in this work. Such are the traits of the Fey.... Great job I loved this!

[Rhea752]

thanks a lot. what's funny is my inspiration for this was just a Disney version of a fairy. i don't know i got this but i did. :P

[ewest1220]

I don't think Disney's fairies are quite this tricky or twisted ;) though they should be that would've corrupted many a childhood lol

[Rhea752]

i have no idea how i got from Disney to this

[ewest1220]

Either way you did a fantastic job... in fact I think I'll put this one in my favorites. It has a very enthralling aura about it.
