Urban Fairy
Cold and stormy are her eyes,
Light is her darting tongue.
And I break when she cries,
Forever old, forever young.
She dances like a grey fairy,
Void of colour, full of light.
My heart becomes the grave to bury
A silver knife hidden from sight.
She flits and flies and steals
A kiss from the lips of all,
Prances away in heavy heels
She is my tragic downfall.

Beautiful, and so vivid.
