Deceptive darkness

It goes unnoticed,
 just beneath the skin
 coursing now throughout.
stalking just outside of what's real
 the battle of flesh and steel. 
 Moon and earth locked in a cold embrace
 un able to look away.
 casualties now of an ancient love,
 its hidden within reflections.
 Deception is her only way to burn, 
reflecting light from the sun. 
The Dancing tides are 
only but one concern
 So its hard for her to look away.
 but it goes unnoticed 
just beneath the skin 
coursing now throughout.
