...It's like a thousand years ago,
I was some kind of emperor...
I sat in royal palace room.
While looking to a fragile mirror.
Devoted servants, guards around.
They do whatever I require.
They know My Everything, I think
But they will never say a word.
If only I could get somebody,
To celebrate my kingdom coming.
To break my loneliness forever.
To realize my human nature.
To be my queen in time of days.
And be my lover through the nights.
I had to travel back in time
To understand this simple thing
The goal of #PennedPaper is to provide exposure to the under-appreciated writers of dA and to provide feedback on all works submitted to us. For this reason we do not accept deviations already found in more than SIX other group galleries at the time of submission to us. This is not an attack on the artist and has nothing to do with the quality of the deviation. For this reason, your work has been declined. I'm very sorry, to read more information there is a news article on our front page or you can read our rules on our front page.
You are welcome to submit other pieces found in less than six other group galleries to us.
Thank you,

To understand this simple thing…" I like that line ^_^
That aside, I think this poem's choice of words and structure is very simple, yet the emotion it conveys is well expressed, honest, real and very raw. It shows emotional poetry at its simplest. I like it ^_^
This is the line that I think is most powerful. It is echoed by everyone who's ever thought, "Why doesn't anyone understand me" and fits perfectly into a forlorn poem.
