Snakes of Emerald, Heart of Glass<br />
Beautiful.<br />
Terrifying.<br />
They whisper in silence<br />
The blues and browns,<br />
Windows to the soul.<br />
Tempting.<br />
Temptress.<br />
Fallen from grace<br />
Persuaded by the snake<br />
An infidelity of mistake.<br />
Fair.<br />
Feared.<br />
The fates trick us all<br />
The princess becomes the monster;<br />
Mortality is brutal.<br />
Exquisite.<br />
Atrocious.<br />
The ultimate conquest<br />
Pieces of glass don’t shatter twice<br />
Come and face the beast.<br />
Statuesque.<br />
Flawed.<br />
Young Fool, love does not come so easily<br />
Princesses tied to rocks are for the serpent<br />
Coil your heart around stone.<br />
Soft.<br />
Hard.<br />
Look into my beautiful eyes<br />
Liberate yourself from deceitful enchantment<br />
And watch the world stand still.<br />
—Sarah Vassello<br />
