THE RUNAWAY KING

before: she was pure handmade
gold and fall was the best
time to have been in love with him.
the bonfires at night
reflected the flames ignited
between them both
and lust was a mile long
away from hell.
He called her Midnight Queen for
having a necklace wrapped around
moon crescents
and She named him
the Runaway King,
for never being able to stay
with her for a little bit longer.
She didn't want him to leave
again but they run on
high and low tides.
She wants to be able to spend
centuries with her Runaway King
but all they ever are is shadows
in The Midnight Queens
flower garden.

After: The Midnight Queens
flowers stopped growing
in her favorite: Spring. The Runaway
King did what he knew best, and
it was tying his running shoes on
his feet and leaving for a long time now.
but he swore that one day,
they'd be together again
and they would finally escape
but The Midnight Queen
struggled against other Kings
awaiting to taste her forbidden fruit
only begging to be saved from her
one Runaway King.
Tears in her dark eyes
believing in lies, she
thought was over
but she will always
remember his black shadow
in her red rose bushes
because time went slow
for them both and runaway kings
don't ever come back.

I guess I should've posted it. Cause I'm impatient :) sorry if it's confusing or anything. - Pamela x
