Sunset

The night caresses my tear filled eyes
As sunset turns the page
Shadows creep to claim the land
The silence feeds my rage
*
Wandering in the darkness
My heart turned hard as stone
Being kindred is my only sin
For this I am alone
*
I dream of sun filled landscapes
And castles dead and cold
But pain filled thoughts assail me
Like ancient Celts of old
*
The star lit sky is endless
Above forgotten graves
A pristine mirror looking glass
A soul that can't be saved
*
You look, you fear, you hate me
Am I so different from you
There must always be the hunted
Tomorrow it may be you
*
The scent, the hunt, the capture
On moonless trails I run
Alas it is my nature
That begins with the death of the sun
*
I prowl the dark cold laneways
A curse apon my head
Pray to all that's merciful
That I will soon be dead
*

A Warlock Stands Alone

Of shattered dreams and eye filled nights
Of swords that cry for more
The stars scream out to still these sights
Like tears of tarnished whores
*
The smell of death is here on nigh
Of evil now awake
I tread on grinning skulls piled high
Amid a red tinged lake
*
Pain and fear are feelings past
Hell hungers for your soul
The end is set, the die is cast
By realms millennia old
*
The shades of chaos marches by
Before me I do see
No flesh, no soul, they tread along
The mortal dogs doth flee
*
Upon this plane of life unlived
Through eyes of Death I gaze
This gore encrusted blade I lift
Is all that can be raised
*
Of battlements and ancient Bards
Now dust and bits of bone
From deep in Hell a scream rings out
A Warlock stands alone
*

Friendship

The faces lie by smiling
Their eyes glisten like ice
You've shared with them your secrets
For this you pay the price
*
They said they would be always there
In pain alone you sit
You hope in vain that they may care
But they don't give a shit
*
They tell you things you hope are true
They make you feel at home
But fool I am, too blind to see
I walk this cliff alone
*
You bare your soul to plastic friends
And give these people worth
Sadly though, it's hurt they send
You soon regret your birth
*
You sit not for love or bonding
Just a hand for help or hope
Instead they give you longing
To dance at the end of a rope
*

Passion

Her almond eyes so soft and warm
Her hair a radiant rust
With breasts and arms enchanting
Her lips confide her lust
*
The softness of her inner thighs
A warmth that passion brings
The icy breeze that speeds the pulse
And makes the body sing
*
A melding of two primal shapes
The fires haunt the night
Savage movements of carnal release
A tear, a moan takes flight
*
The ending comes too soon my love
As dusk is claimed by dawn
A promise scribed in ivory tombs
To build our hearts apon
*

Vampyre

Clarity of innocence
Her eyes bespoke her pain
The loss of all she cherished
In tears of icy rain
*
Her last good-bye to sunrise
This creature of the night
Her breasts so pale and fragile
Her teeth so sharp and white
*
Forever waits before her
The past becomes opaque
A new beginning beckons her
Your soul for her to take
*
The darkened night her playground
She taunts you to her bed
And paints her kingdom's landscape
In shades of black and red
*

[u]Love[/u]

I look at love so differently
Like death it takes it's toll
Beware the trap though innocent
It kills without a soul
*
She came to me at midnight
Her heart for me to share
This trust was for the offering
A gift so pure, so rare
*
Our lives would be forever
With passion wild and free
Love twists its blade within me
And tore my heart from me
*
I gazed into her innocent eyes
She turned and bared her throat
I crushed bare breasts against me
Her cry a somber note
*
The centuries pass yet I remember
The way it was that night
Love was crowned the victor
And killed my will to fight
*

Presence

I feel a presence deep within
It hails from ancient times
Of battlements and clashing swords
Where evil had no crimes
*
I feel a presence in my heart
It burns as hot as coals
I fear its touch and meaning
To crush immortal souls
*
I feel a presence in the dark
So vigilant with rage
A spiral dance of life and death
Like serpents in a cage
*
I feel a presence all around
Confusion, fear and hate
This place I share with mortals
May also seal my fate
*
I am the presence here and now
In shadows deep and black
I rule the dark in all it's forms
A wolf's head on your track
*

Tragedy

Love is such a tragedy
Emotions biggest flaw
It transcends our survival
Our specie's perfect flaw
*
An opaque delusion of happiness
A facade to life a joke
A blind mans observation
A slaves eternal yoke
*
What should be self apparent
Beyond all faceless fears
A bloodless human sacrifice
Its pain awash with tears
*
Love is such a tragedy
As cold, as cruel can be
Don't give your heart to strangers
You'll end up just like me
*

Final Curtain

The sky had darkened suddenly
The time for war is here
The clouds for battle readily
Remarked to us so clear
*
A land so rich and plentiful
Now craters in the dust
All their dreams so fanciful
Now ash and jagged rust
*
The field of skulls are smiling
No living left to count
The heaps of dead romancing
The opaque magenta fount
*
The greed the thirst now sated
For grasping hands no more
The lust for power faded
We close this final door
*
What can be proved
By words from fools
In wars so greatly loved
When all is said and deeds are done
No answers for the dead...
*
