Death's Bride.
Invincible and Calm ...
Dark and Majestic
He stood at the gates
What is that flashing
Across his pale white face ?
Was it a sense of Victory
Was it unending pain
Was it a deep dilemma ...
Was it a triumphant gain !
As he haltingly stepped inside
The pavement turned to Ice ,
Rainbows turned to Death nooses
And the sun refused to Rise .
Who are you handsome stranger
With a beauty so defyingly deathly ...
Always feared , always hated
But at times so eagerly waited !
His heart froze , his steps faltered
This feeling was a First
What was it about her
To his parched throat brought a thirst !
Her wounds unhealed , trodden upon
Her body broken and weak
Her spirit like an injured bird
Her voice unheard and meek .
His hand gently touched her
It is Time , he said
And as he watched , he was amazed
In those eyes pure joy he read .
What is this fair maiden ?
Is that Joy i see !
Anger , fear and Hatred
Are all that are given to Me !
Tears of joy , filled tired eyes
I have waited Eternally
From this hurtful world of mine
You will bring peace Finally !
Two Lonely Souls stood frozen
Finally a soulmate they cried ...
The maiden had found her saviour Knight
And Death had found his Bride !!!
