Subject: I come beholding: THE ANNUAL BIRTHDAY POEM¬! (don't hit me o.o)

Happy Birthday darling Emmy!! Get lots of pressies!!! Here's another to make up for a lack of card on time!! (bad Shazzy!!) XD

Emmy’s bday poem ^^:

Emmy sat and clasped her hands,
And dreamt back to where it all began;
When the tattered sky fluttered grey…
She thought back to that faraway day.

It was the eve of her twenty-first
When the initial signs started to appear;
A wooden sword and a listening ear,
She should have known then…the tears…

It was not a horse the knight did ride,
But a great dragon of the deepest azure,
In whose wild eyes, so soft and pure,
Emmy did seem to be lured…

It was almost as if someone had gone
And fashioned an illusion of that dream –
Unwoven the threads, unfastened the seams,
And looked in close to what might have been –

A joke. A jest. That’s what others would assume.
But I think something far more sinister lies
Behind the blondness, behind blue eyes,
And a melody that made her cry –

For More…
One More…
Toujours
Encore.

She hears and she hopes it will never end.
That a person such as he is near right now,
Closer than he's ever been, but closer how?
And you await the final bow…

But while the sky fades at sunset, with her he remains.
And you wonder at this story’s melancholy stain.
For as the greatest binding love deals the greatest eternal pain,
So, with her knight, Emmy can only suffer, for the rest of her days…


Notes:
1.I was going to put “Du Jour” previously, as a small play on words (“Jour” as short for “birthday”), but then I realised it was masculine ><. Then I thought “J’adore” = “I love”…but then I thought it was too boring. So I settled on “toujours”, meaning “always/never ceasing” ;)
2.“Encore” I’m using here to mean “still” or “over and over”…basically the same as “toujours” ^^;;
3.That ending - meant to be HAPPY =D. Was I too obscure??


I am so sorry, I went all arty I think O_o…um…yes…...
And apparently this year is a short poem year too! Yes, I know my poems were getting longer and longer, and you were looking forward to an epic, and something FUNNY, cos that’s what I DO, but you got THIS instead! Okay!? And yes, I am done with the caps….not XD
HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY EMMY!
