Stained Blood, Stained Tears
Jarvinia

Sheer boredom and a few minutes' time...led to a poem from
Janette's point of view.

Forever Knight and any of its recognizable characters are not mine.

Stained Blood, Stained Tears


Stars glistened in the night sky
  As she stared silently down
Through a window above
  To a shadowed picture below.

There stood her Knight
  Her heart and her tears.

On the ground lay his princess
  Her life fully drained.
The mortal was gone
  His heart's source of joy.
His smile swiftly faded
  Washed away in a flood.

There stood her Nicholas
  His eyes calm and blue.

As he asked for an end
  She almost flew down.
A staff rose high
  Then pierced sharply down.
It slid effortlessly
  Through air and through flesh.
His wish was now granted
  Life drifting tiredly away.
She felt her heart break
  Shattering and cracking.

There lay her love
  So cold, so still.

There, still standing
  Was a lone, silent figure.
A figure of grief
  A figure of love.
He knelt down by Nicholas
  Giving a soft touch of his hand.

Her Nicholas was gone
  His eyes now closed.

Darkness faded to scarlet
  And the stars grew still.
Now only emotion remained
  Stained blood, stained tears.
