she is light
I am shadow
the sun calls to her
and in return for her devotion
lives in her voice
gifts her
with his smile
allowing her the use of it
she invites his embrace
he marks her as his own
with tender bites across her shoulder
always she seeks him
in his radiant domain
is her joy
my shaded world
where I find comfort
chills her
the tenebrious realm
sings to me
in the key of solace
echoes in the darkened chambers
summon her fears
she shivers
I return her
to the warming luminance
our hands clasp
half in light
half in dark
connected across the boundary
we blend
into one
