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..
