The dead of night Swallowed by magic Covered stars, endless fog A place where time is no more Until the battle is over A brilliant flash of fire lights the way Its source sends malice from his own heart The haze parts, only to reveal the dread Intent bolts forward, smiting the hand And blocking the blast of hatred Fury flies, burning the fog Eating at the darkness Both staffs hit the ground Two wizards bow.

This is a very good piece of fantasy based verse. It is also a good analogy for a relationship in conflict. All in all, this is good.
