Star of Fate (69 Eyes)

The night is dark. The full moon is hidden behind the clouds, as are the stars that usually shine so brightly upon your white skin. The landscape outside consists only of black and dark grey and I wonder...

Your ebony black hair lays on the white silk, a beautiful contrast. Like me and you. Night and day. Darkness and light. Almost wrong, but right in a twisted way. And again I begin to wonder...

A cold breeze welcomes me as I open the window. You move on the bed when the cold touches your naked skin and I stop and stare. How beautiful you are. How you shine your light, casting me into darkness. But I don't mind. Your light should not be tainted by my darkened soul. Still I wonder...

The clouds have moved and reveal the full moon and the brightly shining stars. I can see them dancing on the lakes surface. It would be a perfect night for everything. Anything. A shadow moves in the nights light, in silver shadow. I cannot see what it is. An animal, a human. I wonder...

The knife shines bright in the moon's light. So enticing, so beautiful. Like you are. The blade is sharp. You would not feel a thing. It would be beutiful. Like you are. Like I want to be. And yet again, I wonder...

You stir from your sleep and look at me with sleepy eyes. You smile, a bright smile. Bright as the stars in the night sky. I smile back and you close your eyes again. I walk to your side and sit beside you. Lightly, lovingly, I stroke your black hair, that has the stars light caught in them. I smile and I give you a kiss on the white skin. I love you, I whisper into your ear and you smile. I touch the blade of the knife on your white skin. One move and your almost black blood taints the white silk. A contrast, like me and you.

Your emerald green eyes stare empty at my black. The stars are still shining in them, as they always do. I love you, I still whisper in your ear, wondering.
