Lady In The Mist Poem by Elisha De La Rosa

I walk on this land of beauty
For a quest I seek
To find the maiden of my dreams
Love is my belief

Yet, the secrets of this land
Unkown to thee
I encounter the mist
In the land of beauty

The land filled me with wonder, I disbeleave
Paradise with my love
Is what I dream
What do I seek in the mist, a dove?

I see a beauty in the mist
Is this a illusion
Is this the fair maiden I miss
In my dreams i am losing
For if she leaves me I will start breaking

I stand in fear and discourage
afraid this wasn't real
My lady are you in the forest of this mist?
All I ask is for your love, that I want to feel

I stand before her
Here, my eyes upon her
Her long hair streches to her shoulders
What is of her beauty? I wonder

When I felt her hair the black abyass
It was smooth as it for it may be
Inside her breast her heart is pure
Does she choose me?

Her hair in a thousand waves
Enough for any man to drown if touched
Love is not close to what I felt, I want to stay
I hope it is not the mist I feared

Her body tells me
She wants me to be here
Yet if this a dream
Is there any woman like she

I see through her hazel eyes of the trees
I see love and compassion
I see the forest behind her eyes
She has become my distraction

My fears began to come true
My lady is fading
Has the devil cast a illusion on me
So be it, for to I am leaving

I set for a quest
On this land of beauty
I did my best to the end
My emotions is getting weary

This forest of the mist
Is filled with tricks
Yet, I still dream
The lady in the mist

This enter my thoughts
Is there any fair maiden
Perfect as the lady in the mist
For the lady has become my burden
