Inspired by Blodeuwedd.
When I first saw him
When our eyes first met
He reminded me
Of things I had forgotten
Like how brightly
The stars shine at night
Moonlight on skin
Dancing on the water
Spiralling through the leaves
Whispered promises
Silenced by the wind
And he called to me
And he sang of
Mossy covered stone
And dark vein-streaked trees
Buried deep within
Those hollowed sacred mounds
From whence I came
I remember
I was flying up so high
Feeling so alive
Protected by the dark
Everything was so clear
And within my grasp
Life and death and life
And he called to me
And he sang of
Mossy covered stone
And dark vein-streaked trees
Buried deep within
Those hollowed sacred mounds
From whence I came
When I first saw him
When our eyes first met
He reminded me
Of things I had forgotten
