Hiding.....
In the shadows -
My reflection remained -
The same.
Until I was stricken -
By the catalyst -
Who held -
Eternal flame!
Burning alive -
On fire!
Afflicted by -
The light!
Wincing -
Pulling into myself.
Was myself -
My only blight?
Now I face -
My Armageddon!
She's come!
She takes my -
Trembling hand.
And I eagerly follow!
But not without -
Trepidation.
Yet, still -
At her command!
I feel it!
It starting to happen.
I relinquish my body!
The spirit actuating!
Taking control.
That all along -
I possessed -
But couldn't release -
Inside a wounded soul!
