The mirror is shattered and peace is won

But two are left alone in this world of the sun

Son of the morning and daughter of night

A union marked by their holy might

Were turned against and marked again

Defeated the corrupted wielder of Din

And watched their friend walk away

Nothing more they could do or say.

They found their solace in each other

The ones that should have known another

And stayed together through the strife

How beautiful their love, unlikely husband and wife

But that twilight still destroyed them yet

Those two extremes should never have met

Ripped apart then torn to shreds

A dying scream and still no red

They left their bodies and hand and hand

Walked away, never seen again

Forever tainted by that dying light

Cursed to wander in this half night.


I don't own Zelda. This was a poem born of the idea that Link and Zelda die because of overexposure to Twili magic/Ganon's spells. It just took a while to work.
