Transform, dark galaxy rare

Princess Tutu

By Melissa IngoldsbyPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

dark raven covers me with his shadows

I transform

I sink into my fatal heart’s stone

Seeping into your milky moon well

I keep forgetting my true story

I transform under dark hot gliding black wings

Dancing endless, tripping frantic

My heart is near you, ripping a piece out of space for the stars to save their energy into

Terraforming into a closing dream

I’m picking up your moon glider bliss

I’m

Stepping onto the glistening ice rocks

Of mountain Mars

Am I the swan or the prince?

I want to save you

I want to save us

I transform

Or was that you who glows so luminous,

A rare entity of light and green and sun

Made of a dark galaxy that I long to inhabit

Hydrogen and light that creates my brain waves, stars that can no longer hold a candle to your Milky Way embrace.
