As deep as the light of the moon,
She sleeps,
Sweetly,
Peacefully.
Don't try to wake her,
She doesn't want his help.
She doesn't want another day's light.
Is he scared of her darkness,
What is hidden deep within her mortal soul.
Don't dig,
Her darkness will do him more harm than she is worth.
She never knows the right things to say,
Why is it that all she says hurts?
She cannot sing of anything but the darkness within her,
There is no light for her to see.
All she thinks,
Dark.
All she says,
Dark.
Is she frightened of the darkness inside of her he asks.
No,
It is what keeps her emotions void.
It is what holds her tightly,
Securely,
When those of flesh do not,
When they are afraid of that same darkness in her.
She only fears the one who tries to break through her blanket of darkness.
As deep as the light of the moon,
She dreams,
The one of light who tries to break her darkness.
Try as he might he can't succeed.
His blinding light is no match for her darkness.
It beats him back,
She wants him gone.
She's sick of his notions of life.
He will not give into her darkness,
She will not give into his light.
He wakes,
She sleeps.
He sees,
She dreams.
He cries,
She bleeds.
He lives,
She dies.
It is what dooms them to oppose each other.
When his light makes her see,
When she sometimes forgets herself and steps toward his light,
It is only a matter of time before she pushes away his light,
And her darkness envelops her within itself.
As deep as the light of the moon,
She bleeds,
Never again to feel the pain the relentless light brings her.
Her darkness numbs all,
She sleeps with shut eyes.
Just give her the dark,
It's what she wants.
It's what she belongs to.
Don't be foolish and stop her darkness, carrier of light,
She bleeds when she wants to.
Let go of her,
She's not coming back.
She is no longer the one he knew,
Nor the one he seeks.
Keep away from her mind, one of light,
You will not like what you find within.
As deep as the light of the moon,
She dies,
Never to wake from sleep.
His mission has failed,
She dies from the killing of his light.
All the while he lives,
He must remember her as darkness.
