Midnight Empress
Reflection
In twilight's hush, where shadows dance and play,
A mystic figure emerges, veiled in black's dark ray.
With eyes that gleam like stars on a moonless night,
She cradles a leopard, a symbol of power and might.
Her hat, a crown of darkness, frames her face so fair,
A visage of mystery, beyond compare.
The leopard's spots, like secrets, hidden yet revealed,
As she gazes forth, her spirit unsealed.
In this opulent hall, where grandeur reigns,
She stands, a sovereign, with wild beauty's refrains.
The chandelier's soft glow, a halo in the night,
Illuminates her path, a journey through the light.
With every glance, a tale of wonder is spun,
A dance of shadows, where the heart is won.
In this fleeting moment, she is free and wild,
A midnight empress, with a spirit undefiled.
