fire, ice, and bloody things

summary: a poetic series for Game of Thrones; also published on A03 under w0lfmoon!


I. the sweet moon and the warrior:

muse: Khal Drogo and Daenerys Targaryen

sweet mother moon

of violet and white delights

and a warrior

that spoke in strange tongues

speaking in silence,

speaking in the tongues of sex

and afterglows

came together in soul

as well as flesh.

To her, he was both danger and safety;

he drew blood for her

and then cradled her in the same arms.

She looked at him the way one looked

at the warm sun after a long winter;

the way one looks at the stars

on a clear night

in awe, in admiration, in uncertainty.

To him, she was mysterious, elusive;

a silly little girl who was made only to be his prize,

but in the glow of embers

he saw something ethereal in her;

perhaps it was her hair,

perhaps it was her eyes; those violet eyes

or perhaps it was in her voice for in her voice laid a fire…. but guised behind sweet silkiness.

His moon

her sun

His sky

her stars

they were a complete universe comprised by sweet kisses and comfortable silences

and even when she watched him become nothing but ash

as she felt the fire replace his touch,

she felt him run through her veins,

she saw him in her dreams,

sitting outside the gates of paradise

waiting for his sweet moon to return to the sky.
