This is a poem about Sephiroth. Enough said.

Shadowed Ice

Cloaked in darkness

Light is almost gone

Your form is that of ice.

Unable to melt

Hardened beyond redemption

You seek destruction

Flames lick at your form

But melt not the statue.

Trapped in shadow

No light showing

No possible chance of change.

She did try

And she did fail

She should have known.

She died by your hand

Heart frozen to her beauty

And her kindness.

There is no escaping

Destiny.

Merged with one who was

Not only yourself anymore

You are lost to shadow

Never alone.

You cannot love

You can only hate

Hate the pitiful people

Who dare defy you.

They are nothing to you.

You are a spider in the web

Your puppet dangles below

Trapping all the insignificant ants

That crawl at your feet.

No longer owned

No one has claim to you but one:

Jenova:

Merged with her son.

Not son of blood

But of heart and mind

Of cells.

You obey no one

But her.

To rule

To own

That is your wish

Sephiroth

Trapped forever

In shadowed ice.

Light will not touch you

Flames will not burn you

You will never melt

From your frozen shell.

Sephiroth

Stuck in shadowed ice

Laugh at what you will

None equal your strength alone.

But together

They do.

Raise your blade

The Masamune

Harbinger of death

One winged angel

Who has come to destroy:

Sephiroth.

What did you think? I took Night Elemental's suggestions for revision, which I liked better than what I had, and thanks to Aeris-the-Dark and Shalashaska-001 for their complements. And thanks again Night Elemental!
