She Will Always Be The Victor

She lives her life embroiled in a vicious ongoing war,

Beating her wings furiously even as the dark clouds descend,

Struggling when the sun rises in the middle of the night,

As the universe attempts to bring the darkness to an end.

***

If you listen closely you can hear the echoes of cannon fire,

As it blasts down around her from the shores of the moon,

The wind whips and prances around her weakening defences,

The tempest fully believing she’ll be defeated soon.

***

But take heed, she has been sorely underestimated,

She doesn’t wallow in the departing storm,

Follow her light hidden behind the veil, cloaked by her anger,

Beware, her demons have taken up her cause, as her defences form.

***

Hear her whistling to her hellhounds, as she calls them to her side,

The melodious pitch deceptively quiet to those who are in the hunt today,

You’ll never see her coming as she surfs the ocean waves,

Never hesitating as she ruthlessly slays her prey.

***

Take my warning to heart when I say never gaze into her eyes,

Any who forgo this advice finds their soul torn asunder,

Caged for all eternity, paralysed by her weeping darkness,

Tears searing its torment as it is imprisoned within her thunder.

***

She is deceptively beautiful in all her wicked glory,

Ravishing captured souls within the very fires of her scorching heart,

As she marches through your nightmares night after night,

Allowing you to believe she is born to be outsmart.

***

Just as you are convinced she is weakening,

While you ride the high of the battle and her eventual defeat,

She’ll merge with her demons, riding on the back of her lead hellhound,

Laughing at your naivety as she devours you in a heartbeat.

***

There will only ever be the one victor, remember history always foretold,

She is the embodiment of femme fatale with her ancient seductive power,

Effortlessly winning any battle she chooses to enter,

Although she’ll allow you your arrogance until she defeats you in the final hour.
