Ninja Night

Silent, deadly, highly skilled
She drops by with the fall of night
Her stars are thrown, drawing blood
Tattoos shattered in candlelight

The ronin laughs and counts his scars
Grows hard with her ninja ways
Her deft touch, schooled to kill
But all he feels is the thrill

They lay together in the dark
Dreaming of dead lords and changing times
The days of throwing stars is past
But the lovers knew it wouldn't last.
