1. Amidst Her Shadows
2. Crimson Patterns
3. Solitude
4. Shades Of Death
1. Amidst Her Shadows
And there I was
Left standing there
To contemplate what had just happened
I stood there for a moment
Perplexed by all that had gone wrong
How long was I in this hibernal sleep
I gathered myself and probed the area
Not knowing what to do next
I walked through the dense foliage
Until I reached a spot that held great meaning to me
It was the first time I remembered it
Since it had happened
She paused there for a moment
Seemingly blank and devoid of thought
I came upon her somewhat startled
She looked up smiling such a weak smile
She turned and walked away
In a rush these thoughts came to me
As it had been at that time
Her face branded in everything that made me
My actions, thoughts, and every decision I would make
Stained by her face
And that was it
I stopped my soul drained from the thought
Who would think of all that time
I would be as weak as I was
My soul sick of despair and the wanting
And if I could weep at once I would
Though I have no emotion
But that of which I could remember
The blank stare now hit me
The porcelain eyes stained black
2. Crimson Patterns
Darkness captures my soul
It embraces me
As I walk this path I do not want to tread anymore
It was pure pandemonium
Her shrieks pierced the night
This misery that is me
Caused by the years of pain
She had bestowed upon me
There is no taking back
The starlit sky giving way to the details
Her crimson face
To end my suffering
And to give to her forevermore
She lay there frantic before
The satisfaction of the struggle
The pleasure to see my work on her face
It was time for her to touch my soul
To gather an ounce of my pain
This brief moment not nearly sufficient enough
She lay in crimson pools
Memories were all that would persist
My insanity at its peak
My patience had endowed until this moment
I would recall my excitement
Watching her struggle to get free
Her hands lay amongst the grass
Pulled up
As she tried to pull away
She could not escape
She met her final breath
The crimson patterns like artwork
Delicately sprayed here and there
It was time for me to leave
But I looked back once more
For I would never come to see it again
But may it be a moment that I could enjoy
Midst all the tormented ones that plague me now
My work was done
I had done what I came for
3. Solitude
In my solitude I wander
These endless realms consume me
The light of day I no longer see
Swallowed by a veil of my own complications
Your look haunts me
Tracking me down with every breath
You I can no longer see
Trapped in this pain
What must be done
Is something I do not want to do
I wait hoping for what will never come
It pains me to do so
Like a thousand pins in my eyes
Your placid eyes fixed upon mine
Is all I can see
The divine light above you
Piercing my eyes
Death ensues
Closing in closer with every step
My eyes burned with my love for you
I only wish to ask but one thing
Will you join me
But it is beyond my power
And for this I lurk in brooding sadness
These eyes have seen enough
They have grown weary from ages
The light fades as darkness arises
You grow anxious as it unfolds
Yet he beckons closer
4. Shades Of Death
Legions of one faith
Legions of the betrayed
Lost and astray
Secluded from all that is just
Into the bleak dense blur
The black forest
Calls for no more
The darkness encompasses
All the recesses of your mind
It takes you away
And brings you to dementia
Your breath lingers in the air
Paints a picture of distress
Breathe deep a sigh of relief
And pray to your savior
Of whom you raped ours
Within the shadows of temptation
Deeper you follow
The stark limbs
Like a line of Skeletons
Shades of death
Hue of pleasure
Bright freshness
Day old darkness
Flows free
Arteries of life
To embrace and raise me
Oppose your ways
And a quick strike
No more
You destroy yourself
For your cause
And tempt me
With revenge
And with blood first spilled
I shall come again
Riding the winds
Like a leaf blowing in the wind
