May 2017
Hiding beneath the darkest of caves
Where few dared to enter
A pale glow of light it gave
As you started to shiver

Torches lit as you broke in
And sirens that spelled doom
But you did not run away
Your courage did not even sway

You walked through cold halls
Your a girl but you had *****
What was your goal?
The wishes or my presence?

Alas! You found me
Rubbing the lamp gently
and I still remember that day
As I came out and say,

"Oh sweet,sweet lord
Awake from deep slumber
The genie of the lamp
and dazzled against your lap"


You wore a mask
But your eyes were too beautiful
I did not even know what to ask
Your name?
Your wishes but only three?

You wished for beauty
I gave you a mirror
You were angered
Asked what is this for?

You wished for a immortality
I gave you poems
For words never die
But you replied, "sigh"

The last thing you asked was love
and I happily through myself unto you
You nearly sobbed
But you smiled when I told you this,

"I will always be your genie of the lamp
If ever you need me
I will always help
as your knight in shining armor"

"I will always be here
For I will never depart you
Because you were the one
Who drew me out
Who let me love
Who needed me when no one was around
For you will always be my master
and I, your servant"
