Swinging hips to side,

My savior dances,

Golden silk surrounds her glowing features

Hovering above her purest of skin.

Sing-song lines draw from her lips

And gradually brush against my eyes.

I cannot smile, for she has taken this moment as her own!

She is the center, the light, the life,

My life.

All I do is stare on as she caresses my wounded soul,

Tainted by the darkest of unknown filth of this world.

I doubt not her powers,

But whether I can really change.

She offers me a stern yet handsome smile

As light begins to consume my darkness.

Her glow slowly dims from her face

And I reach up in protest.

I assure her I can do it,

I can carry the burden of darkness,

Of what worth am I to receive life?

She promises to rest, now

And nothing pleased me more.

Yet, when I saw her again

She was consumed by my darkness

No longer was she shrouded in the finest of silks,

But in tattered, mud-soaked rags.

Her body was stiff and unmoving,

Her hair sprawled out to her side.

Lifeless eyes stared back to me

As I could do nothing but stand in shock.

My dearest being, this state did not suit you.

I told you to relax and not worry,

I could do your bidding to the world's end

If only you'd allow me to protect your existence.

In the midst of my wretchedness,

I glimpsed a light rolling out from your hand.

It was my soul

It was blackened no more,

But filled with a shimmering glimmer.

I gently touch it, her warmth enveloping my entity.

Leaning down, I brush my lips against her darkness

My savior

My life-provider

You need not worry,

For I am the light, now.
