Iiris Vesik - Unicorn

 

As the shadows of the day
Grew too long
I could see that mine was missing
It was gone

And the part of me
That kept happiness
Grew so panicked
That I could not let it rest

All that I could hear was

?Hello back
We?ll take you among us
But the seeds of mercy
Will travel no more?

They?ll travel no more

So I went into the dark shadow realm
All the shadows playing
Right beneath my eyes
And I searched for the face
I knew oh so well
(It was out of sight)
Until I stumbled
On it?s eyes of red and white

All that I could hear was...

?Hello back
We?ll take you among us
But the seeds of mercy
Will travel no more?

So I looked at him and I asked him why
?Why did you have to leave me in
half??
And he answered me
With a cold, low voice of my own
?It was you who drove me to grow
apart?

As blank knowledge
Sank deep beneath my skin
I knew that the truth
Was breathing in him
And I realized, that of course
I wasn?t a Unicorn
I was just a mere horse

We infused into each other
The shadows in me burned as I learned
?Great, great battles are ahead?
He said
And we returned...
