Oh Darling Elizabeth

Summary:

Won't you smile darling, your love has come home
With an eyepatch in place and a Raven in tow
To the place that burned his parents to the bone
With an eye empty of warmth and a face so hollow

Work Text:

Won't you smile darling, your love has come home
With an eyepatch in place and a Raven in tow
To the place that burned his parents to the bone
With an eye empty of warmth and a face so hollow

Darling, your heart is filled to the brim with warmth
Everyday you burn with your own fire
A child of Apollo you were born from a hearth
Only of your sunlight will he never tire

Darling, is his heart still all yours?
Or does he even have a heart at all?
A ticking time bomb, but yet you adore
That marred face, it's stories tall

(He dances with death, in a ballroom ablaze
Battered and broken, he vows to reign
A sinful mouth, but he's not fazed
Carmen eyes, their hunger unfeigned)

He sees you standing and turns around
The smile you loved so much now gone
Startled, you wondered who you had found
Where was the boy you grew up with, as innocent as a fawn
