A Lion and His Prey

I find you wrapped in utter dark,
your eyes the color of night do not shine.

There are no stars there,
there is no moon and no hint of mornings fire.

I shine bright,
we oppose one another.

I am fluid, motion,
and you are stern, strong and rigid.

I wrap you with my watery self, find my way
into your every dark passion, attracted and consuming.

And in me your eyes sparkle beyond their darkness,
you tower over my weakened limbs, I trembled
and you shadow my brilliance and we are one.
