A tale of two lovers, etched in the sky
A tale of the way, they both sought to die
And melancholy shall turn the tide
Of a love so vast, of a love so wide.
A whisper calls out to them
A whisper not heard
It’s voice viciously spurned from their ears
Melded together by passion so infinite
Taken without inclination, taken tonight.
And death does creep across the lonely floor,
The cold cobblestone, it crawls through the door
Save no warning, death comes to take her soul
And it’s icy hand shall soon unfold.
Lo, by the fire I sit staring vague
Not knowing, not sensing this infinite plague
Into the void, my mind seeps
Across the floor, death does creep
Passing me now, for my life not to take
Passing my mortal, and immortal.
I love her so dearly, the world does not know
I love her whole hearted, and love doth show
A love ten times greater than Romeo knew
When he looked in the eyes of Juliet, blue
And still creeping into my chambers deep walls
Death is crawling, it comes to appall
A demon to Wrathfully take what is mine
Lamentable fear knows no confines
Enchanted.
I lay there not knowing what seeps through my door.
Misconception is a foul hound all around.
Drifting off to a world not so far
A world where dreams reign supreme
This world seems so far, yet so near to me
Until I awaken to find misery.
A feeling rushes in, a feeling of frantic dread crawls over me.
Death’s icy hand has strangled my love
His icy fingers have cut off her breath
Her tender heart, so utterly stopped
And vainly bludgeoned by deaths glove
But nay, death wore no glove on this night
Death was willing to put up a fight
Death took the life of my love so dear
And now I know the fear, springing near
Death crawled away, without taking me too
I chase after his shadow, and beg to be through
I want him to take me, so I can be free
But death is so utterly cruel you see
And what to my eyes, death runs away
While laughing at my mortal shell left to decay.
Death howls with laughter, and raging now
Death will not take me, there’s no way out.
Mournfully I walk back through the dark waters of my empty soul
Mournfully I reside… until contemplations drive me insane.
My love was taken by deaths icy grip
One last kiss, I wish from her lips
Pale lips are not full of life felt before
Death took her life, and crept out the door
And as I sit here, a shell of my soul
All I want is one last goodbye
An emptiness of black lace forms ‘round my heart
Tears of blood stream from my eyes.
One last kiss, one more word
One more moment of peace by her side
But death is a demon, and demons abide
By laws of evil, and in hell they reside.
I’d trade every ounce of every day
Just for death to scratch my name
So death eternally I will seek
To wipe off the tears of blood from my cheeks.
Only to see her, only to be
Death had to take, death didn’t see
Death doesn’t care if I am hollow inside
Tears of blood still burn from mine eyes,
The fire of my life is burning on
The oil in my lamp, almost gone
The knife in my side will soon coincide
And tears of blood shall no longer flow from mine eyes.
Death creeps in again
Deaths shroud seeps in across the floor
I smile as I beg him to take me away
The threads of my life are surely frayed
He takes my hand, as my body does die
Tears of blood shall no longer flow from mine eyes.
He’s taking me to her, he answered my cries
No more tears shall flow from mine eyes.
