This poem is taken from my book (WIP) Love and Madness Under Moonlight. Two of the main characters, James and Xavier, are discussing various texts that they have found in an underground library.
When King Love was sad with a frown,
Prince Pain came to turn it upside down.
King Love then left for a nearby town,
And Prince Pain wore the royal crown.
But someday the King will return for the throne,
As the Prince’s power is only a cheap loan.
In darkness shines an unstoppable light,
But to understand this, one must put up a fight.
The Kingdom and fight is within but it is also without,
The journey will be riddled with questions and doubt.
At the top of the mountain, it will all make sense,
For the Prince put up a very high and strong fence.
Pain and fear will undoubtedly be muddled into one,
Mixed in with hate and anger doubles the hero’s fun.
Life is a flowing song, but can you hear all the mysterious notes?
Or have we all abandoned the song on the Prince’s escape boats?
