I'm flying on my wings of ash,

Upon the feathers is a gash,

A gash of which I'll never say

How upon it came to lay

On my ashen feathered wings

The tale of which the adder sings

Tell a story of the adder's tail

And stop to listen to a wail

A wail of pain

Pain that's given by the chain

The chain that binds her

And her chocolate fur

To the life among the stars

To relive her emotional scars

She is secure

And must endure

The essence of which

Made her courage twitch

Turn tail and flee

If only to be free

From the tale that is

Her love and his

He who flies on ashen feathers

Loves the adder despite her tethers

Tethers to a life so full of spite

And yet despite her able might

She cannot leave the afterlife

To meet and say hello to him

Him is he who flies the dim

The dimming light, his time on earth

And doesn't put hope in the rebirth

Rebirth of love and all that's pure

Will love for all that's right and sure

Within the world of growing scorn

His bloody heart has been spitefully torn

By promises of eternal passion

To the one who's wings are ashen

From the rapture of the adder's tail

And the love of which that can't prevail

Between two sides of the same coin

That never would let them adjoin

For the crimes the adder's twined

To her and her kind

The vines of adoration

The constrictions of salvation

Saving can only go so far

It cannot heal the scar

The scar that is left behind

But has been confined

To the one with wings of ash

He has tried nothing rash

Yet was left with gash

A gash of which he'll never say

How upon it came to lay

On his ashen feathered wings

The tale of which the adder sings

During her midnight days of bitter heart

The worst is to come in it's own part

The taste of her nights

The lightening heights

The flavor feels acidic

It burns her tongue as a flame does a wick

Ashen wings do fly

Up into the sky

Trying to touch the glistening starlight

And when they fail the downfall does bite

The thin lines of regret sting

And line up in a string

A string of setbacks and errors

Of the greatest hurt they will be the bearers

The ashen wings and tail of the adder's


Rate and review PLEASE~

Inspired by my warriors roleplay characters Ashflight and Snaketail. :3 If you squint, you can see the way I've twisted their names. Also, this is based upon/inspired by their history and love for each other and their... predicament. I really just winged it... no pun intended. xD
