Darkened room, no light to spare
She likes to sit alone and stare
Across the way, without a care

Her thoughts, indeed, do wander

No curtains hang on window panes
So many broken, let in the rain
And wash her reality down the drain

Reminiscing, moments squandered

Her hands, unsteady, though try she might
With cursed pens, no ink, spill white
As words, reflected, become quite trite

Why paper bleeds, she dare not ponder

Bending down to grasp the red
She finds her mind, uneasily shred
Is she now one, among the dead?

A thought, of which she grows fonder

Beauty

Feathered in white

Discounts one dressed in black

Who blends with ebony bridges

Alas

Breathing in the lasting moment

Perfumed with lilac scent

Ultimate peace

Repose

Runes glow, as she summons

He awakens to her mystique

He feels her heartbeat, thrumming

His eyes wide, wings spread, so sleek

He can hear her chanting, intone

Knows it is he, she beckons to her

She sits patiently, waiting, alone

His growl, now a low, rumbling purr

With the dragon sword, she shares fire

As she looks to the gods, high above

He moves closer, to quench his desire

She remains, expecting her one true love

Unafraid, she knows he approaches

She‘ll seduce him, with beguiling wiles

As the nighttime sky now encroaches

And the dragon, so deviously, smiles

Breathless Secrets
The hush of the night

Breathlessly floats on the breeze

Carrying secrets
