Rapunzel
By SMYGO4EVA
Mercurial in mood
Immutable in personality
A beauty in golden locks
Separating herself from others
With a tower
A tower of isolation
Pride
& Self-pity
An opponent from darkness
A metamorphosis in a human being
Stagnant in their roles
Seeing her unproven happiness
Within loneliness
Clouds dark and sleek
Breaking her obstinate temperament
A princess whose tiara is shattered
The mirror of recognition cracking
And creaking
And finally into millions of pieces
Chained inside the tower
Of shadows she created upon herself
Darkness in the hopes of conquest
One by one, memories of
Companionship and newborn love
Fade from her mind
Free will now forever an illusion
Chained to the stone of the tower
Blond locks cascading her form
Voiceless
Breathless
Similar to Rapunzel
Her destiny is sealed
In the hourglass and the tower
But unlike Rapunzel
No prince would save her
