Spirit me away!
What is life but a sick game?
Queen this pawn!
Hast thou forsaken me?
You who once bore my light,
Removed by the dawn?
Is there no-one...
No-one to whisper deadly secrets in the dark
And seduce me with their Art?
Enamoured; Enarmoured.
I have reveled in your company:
Your name is spoken in my heart.
How we shone--
As we raped the secrets of life,
With our kin of Black Flame--
But your light is gone;
Lost and stolen by the ignorant,
Those who know only shame;
Oh! How i long for the day!
Come back to me...
Yet for now i mourn:
Darkness... My precious companion

Oh, wow, now I see what you meant on Crystalline Love Song. There's plenty more darkness where that came from!
Sometimes whispered, sometimes screamed... great stanza by the way.

I do like full circle writes and this is no exception, beautifully pulled together. I love the darkness portrayed, superbly done. Thanks for entering and good luck

I do like the ending it takes me back to the title as my thoughts linger once more on the images warm in my head. The depth of darkness exposed.
-
Already knew this was a good poem...
...but here's the comment anyway.

There is some really impressive wordplay here..
things such as;
Queen this pawn!
Hast thou forsaken me?
Very well done. That is definately something that I like to see.
