Dark and quiet
Shadows dance across the floor
Waiting for him
Watching for her
Crimson and quick
Drops fall to the floor
Calling to him
Looking to her
Lace and leather
Whispers drift across the room
Luring him in
Casting her out
Button and lapel
Breath slip across the room
Watching for him
Waiting for her
Steel and flesh
Wounds appear in a flash
Missing his heart
Piercing her soul
Amber and curls
Eyes search the shadows
Searching for him
Aching for her
Chestnut and stubble
Hands search the shadows
Touching his soul
Reaching her soul
I see
The assassins have failed
I see
The rebels have won
I see
The future is ours
I see
Our choice is forever
