Crossroad

The Princess and her own guardian knight,
Walking together side by side,
Setting off to recover her lost crown,
Along a path full of villains and monsters.
The knight thus sayeth to the Princess:
‘My dearest precious Princess,
I, with my full heart, dedicate myself
To clear out all obstacles,
Enabling you to go on,
Accomplishing your task,
Of recovering your lost crown.
You deserved to be crowned,
As your tender heart and wisdom
Is sure to lead the people towards
A better and more prosperous life.’
The knight fulfills his promise
To rid all hazards along the way.
But soon they reached a crossroad
Too narrow for both to pass,
The knight then sayest
‘My dear brave girl,
From here you must go on
Without my accompaniment.
This path was not paved for two.
I know you are brave,
And I have come this far,
You will surely reach the end.
Reach for the crown,
Become the queen,
My soul and my heart,
Will serve you, always.’

The Princess thus walked on,
Alone, and unprotected.
The path became brighter,
The closer she reached the crown.
The glimmering jewels welcomed her,
And invited her to reach out for the crown.
Overjoyed to have accomplished her goal,
But not forgetting her dearly beloved knight,
She came back to the crossroad,
Only to find her knight, gasping for his last breath.
A monster had attacked him,
Right after they had parted.
It was now too late,
For anything to be done.

Years had gone by,
The Princess, now Queen,
Ruled a happy land.
When a mission came again,
She had to set off once more.
Believing she was on her own,
Delighted to find a knight along the way,
Willingly swear to protect her,
They continued down the path together.
The knight killed monsters and rid villains,
And was just as valiant as the previous one.
But whence they came to the same crossroad,
The Queen shivered in fear once more.

Labyrinth

There is a labyrinth in my heart,
The entrance is wide open,
But the exit is invisible.
I turn right,
And end up where I started.
I turn left,
And got back to where I was again.
The pain and agony of being perpetually stuck
Within a space with no time, no joy, and no light.
This is the labyrinth in my heart,
And I wish to heaven,
That one day
The exit will become visible to me
So I can get out.

No Reply

Speak not and listen
To the silence within;
Let the gaze blind our minds.
As I caress your gentle
Whispers of adoration,
We turn this moment
Into Eternity.
We are both heroes
Succumbing to our arch-enemy's
Tender conquest.
If this does not suffice,
Then what will?

Adieu

It's almost time to bid you adieu.
A part of me will be leaving with you.
Over mountains and across the seas,
Where the pasture's crispy green,
Will you be thinking of me?

It's almost time to bid you adieu.
A part of you will always be.
Under the sun, the moon and the stars,
Let's rejoice in this chapter's end,
And embrace our brand new epic.

It's almost time to bid you adieu,
Nothing else needs to be said or done.
For you know best, and I know all,
We are warriors upon our chariots,
Fighting this interminable battle.

It's almost time to bid you adieu.
Adieu! Adieu! Adieu!

Sonnet in Couplets

Our love has thus blossomed two years and one
'Tis a lie to say no battles were won.
The flag has no meaning without its pole,
Like a walking torso without a soul.
The thorns of a rose define its beauty,
Cold chilly winters make spring more plenty.
The sour peels that keep the cherries sweet,
The gruesome tyrant trains the strongest fleet.
Uncovered the veil that blinded my mind,
Can any other be ever so kind.
May this be the last as lovers to feast
Memory shall be permanent, at least.
Your noble tenor voice keeps me sane,
And thus my pen will never dance in vain.

Meeting You

In this strange city,
We met.
Below the inconstant moon,
We chattered.
Above all our worries,
We had
This one unforgettable night.

If Juliet cared none
Of Romeo's name,
Why should we,
Of the temporal limits?

Let's sail together
See how far we get.
Columbus faith,
And so should we.
