swan girl
pale fire bones
 in her wedding dress, bleeding bright
 waiting to be torn asunder
 crawling over corpses to get to
 her beloved
 
 just try and put a sword 
 in those dainty hands, she'll come home 
 smelling like salt water and brine
 talking about the caged sparrows
 she saved
 
 her honey-glaze skin
 it tells stories and spills secrets in his brain,
 as if he'd ever forget the girl 
 who crossed sand and sea
 for him
