"Koori"

The darkness does not frighten me

For it is all I am.

Immovable, untouchable

A cold, unfeeling man.

I swear that that is all of me

My eyes reveal no lie.

Shadowed, shielded, guarded, they

As darkened as am I.

And here I lie, untouchable

A King made out of stone.

A heart of ice, and eyes afire

and utterly alone.

I suck at rhyming poetry.

Oh well. This sat around with the first line and the last stanza for literally months, before I was suddenly divinely inspired.
