vow

I am not a beast
but I will love you
with all my heart
on this sidetrack
of a fairy trail

no castle no crown
awaits
no glory no gold
perhaps
no happy ever after

I still
will love you
with all my soul

may not a ray
not a twinkle
of the sun
break through
granit skies
my path leads
through only night

may never the storm
pass
it hurrls the world
with rain
and hurricanes
of falling stars

but you
are fire
casting shadows
deeper than the dark
around us

I will
truly
love you
with all my heart
