|
It was in this haunted place under a moonless cloak of ebony |
|
I was drawn to the glow of a young spiritess weeping in the woods |
|
The blackest ravens and ice-veiled boughs |
|
Have spoken of you, goddess of these bleak woods |
|
I yearn for your embrace, spiritess of the melancholia |
|
Show me, again, your sweet face |
|
Enchant me with your rich, cinder burnt ether |
|
Lure me into your arms and bless unto me eternal death |
|
She had spoken to the dawn |
|
Her words wisped in tongues of the wind |
|
And then silence... |
|
Pale clouds betrothed the dawn |
|
Black rain fell |
|
The birds wore masks |
|
The haunting stain of her woe |
|
Had burned itself into the oak |
|
Night had gone |
|
Bereaved, I was torn for her |
|
One last time I witnessed her beauty in the distance |
|
The arms of the trees tore at her morbid gown swaying in the loathsome winter |
|
breeze |
|
She faded before my eyes |
|
Since that day a thousand veiled birds have taken flight |
|
And the melancholy rain still pours forever on... |
