I'm despicable to the light
Who beheld my sins, coerced me to refrain
But fell trounced to demise
When held captive by the evil.
Rage departed when remorse arrived
I inched closer to apathy for,
If I let the rapier prickle my core,
Make the ice flux and mould
Into a mush of shame
I wouldn't, I wouldn't survive this game.
I deemed I swayed with the wit of it all,
Sufficient enough to renounce her fall.
We stood apart on the ground.
I fought-
Sparring with all my might,
Defending my heart
Attacking her sight.
Rendering me stunned,
She rose up to all her glorious severity,
Thrashed my senses around,
Brought me to my knees,
Darkness was all I could see
As I found my soul in my serene defeat."Guilt is a poison, a fiend, a painful medicine"
