Eclipse



He took her on a voyage,
To see the sun and stars,
Her love bleeds bright,
Behind his shimmering bars,
There’s a glowing galaxy,
Dancing in her eyes,
But now it dares to dim,
Stardust falling when she cries,
He has eclipsed her wretched mind,
Flying her blind into his night,
He has unfurled his wings,
And snuffed out all her light.
