Your Majesty, You have slain that which Loved Me! That which gave me light in turret high As I gaze out into the heavens, I see not A star marked bright for me, No I have been smothered out and lay waste In the Eastern sky, glimmering no more And you took it upon yourself to see That I was cinder, in your arms of hate For your jealous soul cannot love It cannot give to me the mornings Nor can it guide me through my nights Lonely you are, and lonely you will die! I shall love no other, and I will fade, wither For He, that brought to me, The Rose Of Love that Bloomed Round the Sun! Of Passion that Dewed the earth, Quinched He that guilded Not the freest of me Hath made me chained to his soul, forever I belong to the thorns of sorrow now So please, Close up the iron doors forever Lest I may go through and be grazed upon By the wicked beast you call love I will not pasture your feed Let me die, Here with the Rose of my Love Let us both fall faint to dusty remains For I hate not, the looks of you I pity you, Your Majesty, for You will be the one Who searches the crevices for my Memory And I will have known the Truth of Love. And You will have known Insanity From breathing , My Dust. Inspired by Catalinamoon: I hope you don't think this was too dark. I had to write what I felt. Sincerly, Regina |

Regina This was absolutely stunning, I loved every word. I had visions of another pair of star-crossed lovers as I read this - Romeo & Juliet. Take care......Sue Suetang |

Dear Regina, you write with such passion, as you take us through the deepest of love and the pity upon a soul of hate. You hold love as true in your heart as your passion for the writen word. Loved this piece. Rick |

The smoldered soul of the poison of posession, the total toll of jealousy. This write uniquely shows the price of loneliness paid by both. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve" |

My goodness, this is spectacular, and not too dark at all. That is exactly the way I feel towards the "king". If you have been to my website, read the anger page, its a lot like this. In fact, may I use it on there, it is so appropriate. (with your name of course as writer) Sandra |
