The Stain of the Night

They came at night Just before dawn Moondust awoke I heard the wraiths’ shrieking cries Faeries’ magic to invoke Longbow drawn I kissed my Moondust Then back to back We waited for the onslaught A Faerie Queen ready My longbow ready The battle to be fought Soft amethyst light Surrounded us The love within Will conquer the stain of the night So it was, that evil Tried to take What was never theirs That love can never break Of spells that spill The flashing fire Amethyst light Together we stood And banished the night Time and time again They came They could never win Fighting as one Loving as one Of Faerie magic Arrows brown and gold What lies within Will never hide It burst forth Soft amethyst light Washing away The stain of the night
