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
