Christian Suicide

Folder: 
Poetry

Son of the Northern Darkness,

You brought light into a dying race.

Child of angst and beauty,

You gave us a voice when we had none.

So full of depression and wonder,

The epitome of a Gothic king,

Your reign ended tragically,

With the nooses holding you tight,

The slipknots kissing you goodbye.

Grace forsaken,

Religion abolished,

Your sons and daughters give you away.

Words remembered, lyrics consecrated,

A life cut short with a gasping breath.

You were the Christian Death.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My tribute to the late Rozz Williams, ex-vocalist for Christian Death. He was truly an artist in my view.

Awesome stuff... great way to commemorate a good death metal/ black metal artist... hope I got the genre right... btw do you listen to Immortal at all, or that first line just a coincidence heh?
