The Dark King and the Maiden

The Dark King...

Darkness fills the void that once held my soul

Darkness...

That is all there was until I saw her

Her sweet innocence burned my skin like the light of the sun...like the flame of a candle in the darkest recesses of the night

She is the flame and I am the moth

She is the beauty and I am the beast

Fae, beast, monster, demon and the waking mortal worlds worst nightmare and darkest desire...I am all of this and so much more

To her I am a dark dream from childhood--a dark angel who watches over her

I am one of the shadows she tries to hide from when darkness claims the light

She knows that I watch and wait...

I watch her as she sleeps

Warm flesh on dark silk-mine to claim

How I long to taste her sweetness, feel the velvet touch of her skin

No, I will not force her

She must say the words and come to me as a willing sacrifice, slave, lover, and queen

To me she must offer up her soul and bind herself to my dark corruption forever...

In the darkness of the underground





The Maiden...

Fear is what I feel when darkness falls

This is his time to torment me

A time of nightmares and dark desires

I know he watches me like some sort of dark angel---waiting to claim my soul

I can feel his presence in the darkest corners of my room

He is one with the shadows from my childhood

I can always tell when his is there-watching me from the dark

The air becomes thick with the scent of magic-like lighting during a storm

I hate him, love him, want him, but most of all I fear him

I will never give in to him

To do so would mean joining him in his kingdom of darkness and sacrificing a part of myself to him

The most precious part----

My soul
