Tyra Blackthorne
By BlackVelvet Rose
She
enclosed her dreams
wrapped them within weary tears.
Hiding from her reality
and the demons sharp claws.
She hid her craquelure face
and rain kissed eyes
from the visions of
this ungodly world.
As velvet petals
her wings fall
like a blackened curse
eternal from the heavens.
Her serenity and
her dreams vanishing,
exiled far from
the divine light.
She held a black rose
thorns piercing her palms,
revealing passing memories
of a beautiful faded land.
Her mate, her lover
adopted from the darkness
shielded her body, frail
from murderous death.
This, the only place
she has found peace
cradled within his ensanguined arms
and the tenuous sacristy within.
