The Music Box

Old poem from about a month or so ago, but I dunno if I've posted this before.
It's not that terrific, but read anyways!

An overturned music box in a silent room
The metal tab rotating, spinning
A haunting melody trapped inside a soundless atmosphere
Black images trace the lines in her eyes

Dancing, twirling, the desperation cries from her soul
Ebony hair flowing with an aura of green
Waves of excitement embellished in a whirlpool of fear
Her ivory skin shimmered with the tranquility of sorrow

Whispers resting on sweet lips of crimson
Kisses blown to the never ending unknown
Twenty thousand worlds left unseen
She remains trapped inside a soulless tomorrow

White walls painted with the images of morning glories
Pools of purple silk lie strewn across the floor
Flimsy amethyst wires bound tightly to her heart
She dances on and on, to the melody trapped within her box

She melts into the walls, becomes the wires
A haunting melody replaced by a piercing cry
She falls into a land of eternal solitude
And she dances on


[[And I need some help! I'm planning on entering a poetry contest, but I'm not sure which poem to use. The only rule that's a problem for me is the line limit: 21 lines. I found all my good ones that are that short, like this one, but I'm stuck on which to use. If you'd be so kind, please PM me and I'll send the poems and you can tell me the best ones. Top three will then be resent or posted onto the Your Poetry section [if I'm allowed] for final decision. THANK YOU. XD]]

That's immensely beautiful.
I love it.

Kisses blown to the never ending unknown

She melts into the walls, becomes the wires
A haunting melody replaced by a piercing cry
