Life seems to lie
Somewhere out of reach.
Trapped in growing shadow,
This world
Was slowly turning cold
With fire.
Darkness turned
Light to fire
For his own use.
And Light
Would slowly succumb
To Darkness's form.
In passing time
She came to know
The terrible secret
Which bound them.
Even so,
Light loved him,
The feared Darkness.
She hoped for him,
To rescue him,
To save him,
From a certain
Cursed fate.
For though he tried
To forever silence
The song of her heart,
It was him
Who would truly die,
Forced to live
Life in death.
The change of heart
Was incomplete.
He left her to die.
And Light seemed lost.
Her wounded heart
Still longed for his
Through the curtain
Of sorrowful betrayal.
Those unseen tears
Continued to fall,
And desperate hope
Possessed her.
A twisted shadow
Grew within him,
And she could not
Break through.
She was losing him,
Her dark beloved.
The time came
When they crossed paths
Once more.
Deep within
Both were aware
She would abandon
Her life,
Her hope,
Her world,
For him, Darkness.
Though he wished
To have light once more,
He was certain
That he would kill her
If she came.
His dark princess
She would be,
A changed, fearsome being,
But a shadow
Of her former self.
Somewhere hidden
Life lies
In a place Unreachable
As the battle is fought.

- Title: Out of Reach
- Artist: Arkythiana
- Description: This is a poem I wrote based on the relationship between two characters in a story I'm currently writing. They're drawn together, but their differences and the ulterior motives of Darkness force them apart.
