Brightdown
By SMYGO4EVA

Ancient, yet young
Eyes topaz as the golden sun
A dark, sparkling fire
Downcast lashes
Upon the topaz orbs

Skin as white as snow
Sunlight a soft enemy
Humanity long abandoned
Crystal as the icy rivers
Seeking love from a soulmate
Having now found one

After so long, love comes again
A swift shimmer of fangs
Another song that isn't uttered
Bells ring endlessly
The blue moon glitters upon the lake

The mighty lion treads through the forest
The gentle lamb trembles in its presence
Sought and looked upon
Eyes singed with curiosity
The fear drifts away at last

No fear at all
Only desire and affection
Lights shine upon them
No crimson rubies stain
In the presence of night's creatures
The brightdown comes again
