The Commoners King

by: Jessica Taylor

By Jessica TaylorPublished 5 years ago 2 min read

I was once the child

Nonexistent in my whole

I; spiraling down the wild

Loosing the light inside my soul.

The past a haunted mess

The present seemed so grim

The future held even less

And then I met him

There in the darkness black and bleak

A light become ever so clear and bright

I; the fearful falling at his feet

He; the hope in the night.

And then I had risen at his call

He placed me at his side

Holding me so i wouldn't fall

Making me feel the woman that hid inside.

The belief there stood like a dream

The waters of my eyes flooded my cheeks

To myself I've been unfair so it does seem

Allowing myself to be vulnerable and oh so weak

But that did not stop the angel of hope

He did tread carefully to bring down the evil in me

Pushing back the negative and helping me to cope

Pulling me to see that I am more that'll be

He is my strength, my light, and the I man love

He; the prayer i needed in my life

The angel sent from above

To help me end the self inflicted strife

So many words I keep, so many to describe how I feel

The silent promise screams to be broken

And at his feet I remain invisible still

With proclamation of my love left unspoken

And with each brush or contact slight

I find myself in his presence warm

Each experience with me on his right

And I only feeling at home in his arms

My heart no longer feels the unending pain

You make my mind forget the sadness

No longer is darkness driving me insane

Yet, I still feel like I'm loosing my senses

And this morning I realize it's you

Your arms my home, my fortified fortress

Time and time again I want to scream the truth

But my silence is a heightened test

And here upon the stones I kneel at your feet

My love in never ending store for thee oh great king

Your woes begone within the deepest parts of me

I; the commoner; only longing to be your queen.

Jessica Taylor

My deepest desire is to be able to help people; since I am too shy to be a professional speaker I decided that writing is my next best option. However, I do love the feel of the pen upon the page and the clicking of my keys on my keyboard.
