TheTwilight Accord

Behold the damned and blazing skies of my reliquary,
I wear the mask of millions driven to divide and conquer,
I peer through diamond eyes misbegotten of the divine
Witness my psychosis and a bladed thesis of irony


I see your darkened colours breathing forth into the emptiness
Gaze upon my light and feel my angelic whispers flow
My shining aura will envelope your stoic misgivings
Pearl like skin and sapphire eyes will draw you to my warmth

Ahhh but the light you shine hurts these eyes so used to shadow
In its pure glow I witness my own ugliness and bow my head
The slight thaw in my frozen heart burns bitterly sweet
I dare not touch least I leave my taint on your incandesance


Your frightening radiance withers many hearts in is sheer horror
Yet I am drawn to you in all your vicious glory, my dark lord
Aching to touch your emptiness and fill it with all my grace
Bow your head not, but lift your eyes to my wonder… come to me

Will you follow me down the dark and twisted paths of my malaise?
And dwell with me here in this barren dreamscape harsh,
I will come and you will not remain untouched by my blight,
I fear you will wither in the darkest aspect of my power,


Follow you I will into your minds nightmare seemingly inescapable
For my radiance is glory fierce and darkness cannot tempt it
Nor shall your power excite it to wither in a slow demise
Embrace me now; feel sweet splendor surround your mightiness


In the presence of my grim visage you just shine ever brighter,
And to my dismay I am like the moth, though dark and deadly,

In shadow you surround me, your seething dark pours through me
Fanning your flame to ember my magnificence blends into you


I realised then that I was missing something, that I was but half,
Seeing now my brightness was absent a subtle darkness to complete,
In twilight streaked and clearing skies two become one and whole,
Melding into harmonious accord, luminous angel and dark lord.

    When a collaboration works, it works. You two seem to have got it right here, mirroring each other's "voice" so that the poem has unity. I'm afraid I found the black lines hard to read on the red background, though.

    very surreal which adds a great affect.
    I enjoy the last four lines

    Just like azlyn, I was drawn to it and re-read it several times to be able to gather all of it's beauty.
    Brilliant poem, I am pretty much speechless...
    Well done!
