Frozen Ash

Can you see me flash like lightning?
Can you hear me thunder o'er this blighting?
With dragon's breath you may burn me,
With a Titan's stare you may freeze me.
Like ghosts in the catacombs I will linger;
Never shall I fall!

So try your best, let your storms come.
Like a blizzard they will pass.
Like meteor showers they will end.
I won't become your frozen ash.
As for me, like the northern lights I shall shine.
You can't black me out.

The Grey Mist Of A Healing Frost

Our tree has frozen in the snow,
its branches are now burdened low,
The waters let their corpses fall,
freezing and burying all.

Like a fog the snow rolls in,
birds fly through as the blizzard begins,
a sea of white covering the land,
proclaiming the King of winter grand.

The heavenly snow is our Delight,
and fills our world with resonating light,
with peaceful Silence floating in the wind,
healing our tree that has been skinned.

Light Show Over The Lake; Part I

We look up toward the sky,
excitement filling us until we die,
By the lake we so eagerly wait,
gathered by the shore with all our mates.

The night lights up, the skies burst,
making us forget our hearts cursed.
Lights fly from the ocean of trees,
making white the heavenly sea.

Reflections on water radiates our world,
spalshes of colour on their canvas unfurled,
The fire blazes on the shadows that lurk,
seeming to joyfully do its work.

King of Storms

I am the Storm King,
hear my decree!
The heavens like vikings
shall storm all you see!
Watch the people flee.

I am the Storm King,
the floodgates shall open!
The rain is striking,
slaves driven down the Slope 'n
down to the sea.

I am the Storm King,
I have made my empire.
Hear my bow sing.
I will drown out your fire.

I am the Storm King,
and you shall be made to see.
It is not wise to be double-crossing.

Irritation Of Hollow Shells

The ground is saturated with blood.
On cue, the raven's harp chimes.
There's nothing but a black rose bud.
Why O why do you people act like mimes?
Just speak! Out of this rut.
Stop worrying about my feelings.
Don't you know I don't have any?
My life you are stealing.
This hollow shell is like a penny.
It goes in circles, trying to please people.
It thinks it the way to happiness,
when it really just fell into a deep hole.
It drowns in eternal nothingness.

Taunted

Save him, save him!
He cries out for help.
He wars with One,
one who is he and yet is not.
He has fallen;
in his darkest hour he strikes him.
With thorns he has stabbed him.
Yet he makes no effort it seems.
He dabbles back and forth,
never staying for long.

He knows that must change.
He knows it will.
But that time seems to be taunting him,
haunting him...
It reaches out to him with an outstretched hand.
And as he draws closer,
it runs out on the road.
O miserable taunted one!

The Raven's Feather

I stand by a tree,
the sky is grey,
and all I can see,
is a feather gone stray.

A feather as black as night,
floats gently through light,
through the fissures of life,
cutting through me like a scythe.

Looking down at me is a raven,
like the expanse of the heavens, no craven,
his eyes as deep as the abyss,
making me wonder if I even exist.

The feather drops like black water,
to the earth, turning it to fodder.
It haunts me, never leaving,
eternally eroding and deceiving.

Persephone's Slave

A solar flare losing it's effect...
A white dwarf has lost its light...

You've set sail on a boat in the Night,
a boat that sails the seas on the sun bright.
Come, watch with me from our Mountain high,
watch the boat burn and die.
Watch the phantoms flee and fly.
Watch your body turn to dust
as I leave the miasma of your lust
and see the destrucion of your bust
in the Hall of Life.
Enjoy your time with black Death's wife.
Be her companion, be her slave,
and know I'll never visit your grave.

The Ocean's Our Sanctuary

Tomorrow I know I may die,
tonight the trees may fall.
Tomorrow corpses may lie,
but tonight I follow Love's call.

A new world exists within us,
where blue waves cover the sky,
our fears are blown by wind gusts,
and there's no need to say goodbye.

As we run through trees entwined,
we see there is no need to weep.
Our sanctuary we will find,
down in the deepest sleep.

We runaway somewhere far,
as we look at the night sea,
under the moon-bow and stars,
from our sea of love shadows will flee.

The Unraveling

The earth crumbles at her feet,
revealing the graves of the cursed,
a malignant spirit making the dead bleed,
resonating through the carcass of me.

Her shrieks sink into the ancient stones,
as she adulterates the damned's bones,
heartbroken and dying of lust,
she breaks the dark moon's trust.

Trapped in this mystery,
hearing the wind's misery,
I feel her spirit flowing,
and I an ember glowing.

And as she passes over me,
I am made to see,
my spirit is traveling,
waiting to see the Unraveling.
