Author's Note: [Response to] Challenge - Never Would Have Happened; Poem
P.S. It's Psylocke and Colossus
She stands in the night's embrace,
Unaware of the dangers
And uncertain of her future
From the window I watch
As she kisses the cold
Night wind and laughs
Time has etched away
The school girl facade and
Now she looks like a woman.
Never have I felt so
Never would I have dreamed
But then she looks at me.
Her eyes turn,
Purple on yellow skin
And I am caught in a spiderweb.
I want to cry and scream,
"I didn't mean it. I'm sorry."
Then she smiles.
She smiles and presses
A finger to her lips.
"Shh. Our secret."
Then she is gone.
Melted into the shadows
And I am alone
Alone with my memories
And the portait I painted of her
When her hair was pale purple.
