Sleeping Beauty IV
Description
Sleeping Beauty
A still night
Summer smells
Wet grass
Playful Freedom
Disturbed
Hunters Lurk
Behind cruel smiles
Deluded entitlement
Hateful desire
Wanting now
Sweet dress
Fresh pink nails
Clean, sqeezey hair
A hint of rose oil
Dancing heart
Cruel takers take
Against protest
Hard screams
Wilful violence
No permission
The breeze stirs
Moonlight sparkles
Birds stop
Petals close
Gentle rains land
Death grip
Penetrating her soul
Trails of blood
Imposing nightmares
Overpowered
Looking back
Enough
Movement no more
Deep Silence falls
Sleep long
I leave you flowers
Love letters
Gardens of tears
Butterfly kisses
Tender hugs
and yesterday’s dreams
Beautiful then
Beautiful still
Karla Dickens 2016
