A/N: Haha! I have returned to after finally withdrawing my limp and waxen body out of its deathbed to produce a corny piece of literature. And I mean it's corny! So who are the poor minions who must suffer my fan girl abuse? Ah, the misguided and hormonal teenagers, Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy! Poor them! –silence- Anyway…this is a poem-fic and so therefore it is quite short and does not follow the same conventions of fanficton. However, if people love this poem heaps and they REVIEW then I might write a story based on it, only if they REQUEST it. Nevertheless, I'm up for criticism and improvements, but since this is poetry, grammar and dictation are out the window in a way. Anyway please read and enjoy!
LOVERS LAMENT
By shinujigoku
Moonlight dances upon the mirror's surface
Emanating bright light upon the dusty floor
A boy, pale of skin and of hair,
Staggers to the mirror in awe
His hand outstretched, his fingers splayed
The boy moves on in the darkness blindly
He whimpers and falls, he rises again
To the reflection winking at him kindly.
He quickens his pace, he is so near
He sees the eyes, the bright green eyes
The raven hair, the sweet sweet skin
He sees them all in the mirror's lies
One last step, the fingers embrace
The reflection, the glass,
The bitter-sweet truth that,
This love is only a farce.
'Is it for real? Is this what I desire?'
The pale boy whispers to the dead of night.
'If be it true, you'll hate me won't you?
But please let me love, let me fight!'
'Why should I hate you?'
The shadows murmur
'If that is how you feel
Then say it clearer, say it firmer!'
The pale boy astounded
Jumps back in fear
As the shadows move languidly
And come silently near.
The moonlight cascades upon the shadow
His features come alight and bright
His hair, his eyes, his muscular frame
All seen in the darkness of night
The shadow walks nearer
And embraces the boy
'I love you,' he whispers
'You're my light and my joy.'
The pale boy smiles
And gives him a kiss
'Please don't leave,
Please don't end this!'
'Of course not my love'
He whispers in reply
'You're everything to me now;
'So please, do not cry'
'Why are you here?' Why now? How come?'
The pale boy weeps as he murmurs to him
'You dreamt of forever, of love and of me
So I'm here to grant your very desire, your whim.'
The pale boy nods as he undresses
The other begins to do the same
Together two bodies entwine once more
With love, with lust, with pleasure, with pain
The pale boy, flustered, full of love
Draws out a locket and chain of gold
The dark boy blinks and smiles wearily
As he himself draws out a sword of old
The pale boy kisses the other tenderly
As he begins to entwine the chain
Around him and his lover's delectable neck
Tying the serpent's slyness and the lion's reign
'Are you sure? There's no turning back'
'I'm sure. I want to do this.'
The dark boy nods and rises to the mirror
Whilst dragging the boy with a deep passionate kiss
Together, they stood, gazing at their reflection
Where the moonlight illuminates the pale and the dark
The gold glitters around the lovers' necks
And the sword shimmers dangerously stark
A hand caresses the boys pale cheek
And turns him around forcefully
Until green eyes meet startling blue-gray
Where they glimmer and shine quite morosely
The dark boy draws the other near
And kisses him with tenderness and grace
The pale boy moans and whimpers
As his own hand rests upon his lover's face
'I love you' they whisper
Before the sword flashes bright
And pierces the two lovers together
Entwined within each other's sight
The lovers fall
The end is nigh
Their last glance,
Their last sigh
Together they lay
The Lion and the snake,
A tale of sad sorrow
About love and its stakes.
A/N: I also like to apologize that this is a horrendous piece of rhyme, yet I hope you got the meaning of what I was trying to portray. I don't usually write rhyme, but meh, it came out this way. So since you're reading this it is time to venture your cursor to the 'Submit Review' toolbar, and actually submit a review for it. Thanks a bunch!
