Sheltering Sky
By SMYGO4EVA
She still does not know
Who he really is
Only that he is a true leader
And always has been
Always will be
Always should be
She is a warrior
The daughter of the AllSpark
As all Cybertronians are
Regardless of their affiliation
Arcee does not know the true Optimus
Who he is behind the mask
Of a leader
The last of the Primes
When his guard is down
Those are gates that never open
And possibly never will
She has always been by his side
Ever since joining Team Prime
Though entrapped forever by
The fog of battle and split energon
Their very existence
Marred by sorrow
Encrypted with strategies unknown
Unexplored
Unexamined
The sheltering sky above provides
Little solace for death already done
Even amongst the light in the darkest places
