Silver Snow Falls

Silver snow falls,

onto a red forest lit

by a pale, burning moon.

Autumn fades

within a flash of cold,

and steely silence reigns.

A demon fights,

watching undergrowth wrap

around his unaware child.

No longer in fear,

he retires

waiting out the next fight

to emerge from undying forest floor.


Author's Note: I do not own Durarara! or it's characters. And now that it is officially winter, I celebrate with vague ramblings and a poem about Ikebukuro's one and only Red Demon. Because I like Akabayashi and think that he would be a great adoptive dad for Anri, provided people stop trying to kill him every other weak. But anyways, winter is here and thanks to anyone who cared to read this little poem.

Best wishes,
