Scattered (shattered?) Moonlight

Crystalline shard trapped attempting to fly through the air

Just trying to land on the lake that's rushing past

The glass sprinkles moonlight in sparks around and looks grand fair

The shards cut at themselves and splinter till all is released in a cold blast

Then a warrior steps through the debris

And cowers with cat ears poking high

Looks around with sad sad glee

Simply states "I am free."

Then turns a large sword and looks to the sky

Then the truth comes out "I will not die

Not for you and not for me

My word is my bond and ever shall be."

Then turns the timid frame covered in fragile dust of glass

And turns a knight to face the past.

Sprint walking in the night

Only the glass mind gives itself fright

But realises as glass forms back round

That they must fight till in the ground.
