Shades of Crimson
Inspired by the drama of Regulus and Keige, from "Princess Rouge". *sniff*
We dance tonight, all bathed in light
Others watch our lover's flight
'Cross ballroom floor, ask nothing more
But that we can share forever.
The room is filled by couples milled
Their presence I can't even feel
Just you and me, in crimson sea-
My flowing, silken skirts.
I'm in a dream, or so I seem
Amid the light- a King and Queen
Songs fill the air- the truth they bare
For only love is here.
For balcony, we're sure to flee
After the last slow melody
The night is fair- all stars aglare
The navy sky an endless plain.
The breeze is slight, I drink your sight
Such handsome calm for Royal Knight
Your smile devout, box taken out
Ring golden you present!
What joy I feel- this can't be real
I embrace you- all my worries heal
We'll live always, til end of days
In our undying love.
At least I thought. Before we fought
Before my sister your Lord sought
He saved your life, now wrought with strife
Tonight, we battle fierce.
In forest dark, our two swords spark
As thrusts collide, and clang and mark
Our blood is shed- we're to be wed!
Why must lovers fight so?
You fly at me- my Destiny
To kill or to be killed by thee
My sword I wield- you have no shield
Blood drips down my hands.
Apologize, explain your ties
I gaze into your dying eyes
You disappear, no longer here
I scream my grief in vain.
Do you recall, that ancient ball
We danced in bliss, and couldn't fall?
Oh, tragedy, our Destiny.
What happened to forever?
I still wear your ring.
