Sered Beauty´s Memoria

livid princess, what sweet caress
is it to perceive thy voice
a vivid pain fills my heart
and it tears the raging void apart

what once shattered now ordains
but still the wounds reveal their warm blood
a sinister tale like a crying gale
unfolds behind this flickering opaque veil

once upon desire..
I had known thee my dear
my incomparable doleful queen
drowned in tearfilled rivers
calm and rigid it seemed
devoted to the fulgent crystal streams of sin
I thought thee lost forever succumbed to deaths guile

but my burning desperate yearning
granted thee a last returning
the shrouds left back on the funeral stack
we paced through the wide open lichgate

and as the bell chimed from the steeple
silhouettes both free and feeble
danced through the wind winged by absynth
with childlike temper and yet pulsating life

did we betray what once was divine?
gnarly trees hum melodies of lurid bedewed phantasies
I will embrace thee until the dawn
for the time we had was just a loan
and inside her heart turned into stone

with every single heartbeat morn draws near
but this sunset gives no warmth
I behold my hands with wistfulness
they couldn´t hold thee close enough

forgive me my beloveth heart
I tried and I have failed
so you leave me again burnt out and hollow
with a life I won´t sustain

it ends dreary, now that my fairy
fades away so weak and bleary
a vivid pain fills my soul
and no hope there is to retard this fall

ere thy presence turns to evanesence
kiss me deep just one last time
and expose thy dearest wish
I will never forget thee for we were once one

then she smiled with a glance
which broke my will to live instantly
with eyes eternal sad and these lips
I tasted a thousand times
"will you forever be just mine?"
she whispered...
"and will you do whatever it takes?"

Anything my bride
I am with thee when it ends tonight..
And as the morn claimed the velvet sky
I kissed her softly
..goodbye..
