Lady of the night, Guide me through the maze, To the meadows where you frolic, A playground built by imagination, Where our kindred souls may be lost, Forever enthralled by the simplest of games, A scar of pure joy. -CDC

As the fire burns, The embers dance, Lulling me into submission, The smoke drowns, Cupids arrow has been released, And I the scarecrow, Remain ever still, Watching, Never revealing my qualms, A stuffed fool, Never free. -CDC

Bright and splendid, Beaming with light, Surrounded by the stars, Mesmerizing. You were sun, I was the moon, As you disappeared from reach, I begun to fade, To wane, Until all but a sliver remained. After all, I was just a reflection, A fraction of your essence, And the moon cannot shine, Without being kissed by the sun. -CDC

Why can I only reveal my thoughts when you are upon my lips, Tugging upon my ever beating heart, A plea for a kindred soul, One who could see all that might be, Sweet nectar that bleeds into my veins, Reveal unto me the truths you hide, The silent guardian, The thorns upon a rose. -CDC

Torch in hand, With a sadistic smile, You set us ablaze, Already ashes, We floated towards the heavens, Only to land upon the ground, A fragment of a memory, Longing to be revived. -CDC

Like the wind rushing through the trees, You crashed into my heart, An untamable spirit, Prancing and dancing into oblivion, Fearless and coy, An oxymoron, That enslaved my waking thoughts, Consuming me in a thunderous serenity. -CDC

You are my Athena, An unmatchable vixen, Luring without effort, A toy at your disposal, Begging for but a chance. -CDC

Let these words reach you, Hidden love letters, Thrown among the stars, Each playing the fool, Laying in the grass, Fingers slowly entangling. -CDC

Who am I? The hand clenching your heart, Coaxing the darkness within, The ultimate release, Causing pleas to be atoned. -CDC
