Suddenly I am awakened from my peaceful slumber Though not entirely alert I wait for your next move Gentle hands move over my body sending subtle hints Soft lips caress the back of my neck I writhe in pleasure from your touch Instantly you're gone, leaving me to wonder Slowly I open my eyes - study my surroundings I'm in a room of complete white I stretch lazily and slide out of bed Pure white walls enclose the unalloyed bed Ivory pillows over spotless, pure bed sheets Pale carpet under a snowy ceiling Frosted bedposts and an ashen quilt Stepping towards the wall, a mirror appears A beautiful woman appears with it Soundless in her own elegance and shapeliness Seductive eyes stare back as my eyes search her face Her lustrous skin is hidden behind her snowy gown Made of silk so fine even a queen was not worthy of it The woman’s luminous hair gleams from her silvery surroundings Looking down I see that it is my own hair This woman is no hallucination for she is I Turning away the mirror vanishes and the woman with it In front of me lays a hallway; a speck of red on the white As I make my way closer I see it is a rose petal A vermilion rose petal among ivory threads Continuing down the hall the scarlet petals change Soon they are not petals but tony drops of blood Drops of crimson life painted onto the blank rug Still following the carmine trail I turn a corner A door lays before me open to the colorful world My slender body spasms as I cry out and turn away Enchanting eyes forever scarred, defiled Hideous colors, blues, greens, yellows Contrasting to the perfect whites and reds I turn away from the open door The pathway to "freedom" and normality I am content to stay in my own realm of perfection Where I am beautiful and truly free You may visit from time to time, for I am lonely in my abode My kingdom over which I am Queen and only citizen Please feel free to drop in, just remember to shut the door. :: Posted by Heidi |
