The Darkness
Stood still, the Lady of the Sea
Lost in the midst of passions wed
Her crystal beauty ; dear water faery
And I
I am the darkness you most fear,
Patient,
Silent.
Rocks and drops clash and spur
Cloud of regret upon us both
Stood she, proud Lady of the Sea
Thoughts forming sheer atrocity
Did Luna smile ? Still I doubt
Oceanborn though she was
She sought to cleave the unspoilt day
By unnamed treachery, and yet I croaked
Raven wings would fly no more,
Betrayed,
Dismayed.
Condemned with awe, lovers saw
A most frigid sun slain beyond the Sea
Night time did yell
And I
I am the daemon you shunned,
Poisoned,
Dead.
A Lady in woe cast fell blows
Lain naked in cold sheets, she wept and grieved
Blunt refusal of one last false act
Faint whispers in a faithless eve,
Blackened,
Wracked.
Such decadent tears, such elegant dance
Wept she : “t’was the most beautiful romance”
And so proud, this maiden listened at naught
Oh, puce lament, my One ! Forfeit thy innocence !
Harken, for I,
I am the poet whose verse you erased
The bright swan whose feathers turned black
The darkness your delicate shadow doth cast,
Patient,
Silent,
Defiant.

"Farewell now my sister
Up ahead there lies your road
And your conscience walks besides you
It's the best friend you'll ever know
Make sure that the love you offer up
Does not fall on barren soil"
-Dead Can Dance, "Tell me about the forest (you once called home)"
