A/N: A poetry rendition of the "Ice and Dark" story from DNAngel vol. 8
Ice and Dark
The sands
of time keep trickling down
Falling
softly to the ground
Moments
slipping through her hands
Attempting
to capture the falling sand
Frozen
there where none can see
Doomed to
stay for eternity
Dying
slowly, fading away
Regrets
rest with her to stay
Her lover
dying to save her time
As she
once did for his life
But
there's one thing they both forgot
You can't
give back what's been lost
Now she
rests, never to leave
For he's
expired through another's greed
His
friend, tormented by his guilt
His time
haunted while her flower wilts
Compelled
to stay, without peace
In sorrow
he writes, alone he weeps
Recording
what happened as a tale
A written
record of his betrayal
And thus
the hold on him released
Letting
him finally die in peace
