Sad Princess

my sad princess
with your halfcocked smile and glazed over eyes
my hand clinched at your throat
hoping for a tear
a sign that life still resides there
rosy cheeks flushed with the water
that drips from velvety crimson petals
porcelain skin whimsically cracked here and there
a sign of weathered wisdom
delicately slippered feet
coated in a thick red syrup
as my bare feet are engulfed
by the warmth as well
those long locks
of the darkened sea
black from the reflections
of the moonless sky
just a twinkle scattered wildly upon each wavetop
mirroring the shimmer of yonder star
awake from this sorrow
live for me once more
i�ll scream till there�s no tomorrow
but you succumb
and fall at hell�s front door
