Juxtaposed

Within the darkness there is a light Where our shadows bare no fright There lives a lady made of dust Who may woo you if she must And her lover engulfed in flame Ashamed of nothing but his fame Who sleeps while she's around Yet as he stirs she can't be found So listen carefully while I speak If the coming of ages makes you weak Even though your lover's away Or she's possibly just dead. Her beautiful body may decay Forget the words you'd never said.
