The Mirror
You are the depths of dark and light
I fly... in your aspect, I shine.
Turning in your immortal glow
Above the horizon, I am divine.
The light extends to all I see
The dead risen with my breath
Unruled in passion, protector of all
Unassailable even in death.
I gaze upon your reflected face
As the illumination dies within
My flesh is torn, corrupt and base
My flight crippled in my sin.
Ripped asunder in your glare
A pool of black and viscous night
A road from whence there is no return
I wither in your slight.
