Cursed

In absence 
that led to such desire
a frail beauty
forever filled with tears of an empty empire
spoke in 'his' mothers tongue 
of diamonds
and bloodshed.
He smiled, 
pulled her off the silken sheets of night
"darkness is all of our light dear child
your such a beast
In light
and darkness
or absence of both."
