Night calls upon the blackest skies
The only light, shines from her eyes

In answer to his darkest prayer
Where she now, awaits him there

Caught in ebony limbs and leaves
Nestling quietly with the trees

She listens as he chants his claim
Hearing, as he speaks her name

For he is the one within her soul
The darker side that makes her whole
