Alone in the shadows
A darkened figure stands,
Cloaked in black majesty
Deepened by impenetrable solitude.
Iron fortress surrounding a lonely heart,
Trapped by inescapable difference.

Silently watching, gently teaching,
Quiet protector of a frail figure,
Possessor of a voice so pure
Heav'n itself might have wept at the sound
His student, his love, his destruction.

Turning from 'angel' to 'horror,'
Broken symmetry, destroyed innocence.
How did it end like this?
Heart breaking, soul reeling:
Was it worth the chance?

Alone in the shadows
A darkened figure stands,
Cloaked in black despair
Deepened by rejected love.
Iron fortress shielding a shattered heart,
Trapped by invisible bars.

Broken.
