Tales of the Shades

Warmth with her veil drawn,

Faded from his distant sight.

Inked night, starlit sky. 

The castle shone. 

Moon, as an immortal crown, on its top. 

The hilltop drenched in solicitude. 

Night phloxes hummed along the way. 

Petals laid throughout, curves and lengths. 

Varied patterns, diverse tones. 

Love in many forms. 

Unaccompanied, in his room, eyes shut, 

Fragrance stormed into him. 

Tranquil and dreamy. 

His prince charming drew closer. 

Radiance blinded his sight. 

Drowned in those ethereal eyes, 

In his seraphic smile. 

Enamoured, stood still. 

Dazzled eyes, wide open, 

Sought companion. 

Helpless! 

Stared, vibrant arcs on the canvas. 

Rainbows on the screens. 

Within the walls, breathe, 

Untold tales of the shades.
