A Death Tale

In a masquerade I stood, cold, by the sea and the shining moon
Soon a radiant jewel passes in the fainted light where she swooned
Embellishing the air with fragranced desire, and my heart with croon
Where danceth her nocturnal beauty in visions dimmed and pruned
Mistress of the dark, I know not what thou art!
Yet waketh in me a lustful sin
Dragged out of stillness straight to my heart
With cruel moonlight upon yer skin
To the forest so black did I follow
Her footprints carved in snow
Walking like a sleepless hollow
Finally I see her beauty glow
"Nocturnal Queen, my heart beats for thee
Let me see thine face, lower your mask to me"
She lulled me away of what I did say
Gently sealing my lips with hers
…and murmured me a kiss
Desire urged by her sweetest spurs
Feelings adrift in a darker abyss
- "My love doth speak with voices unheard
Emotions say more then a thousand word"
In the forest misted lawn, where stone figures forlorn
Hath she once again faded
And her spell upon me broke
I sought refuge in a cemetery, jaded
Enfolded myself in a black cloak
In the pale morning sun, did my last breath run
I tore free of my sleep sepulture
To see her standing by me
"Hath I been waken by yer sweet lure?
Move thine delecate lips and answer me"
- "Your soul hath long been wasted
With misery waiting to be solved
Now your end hath hasted
And your death evolved"
- "You and I are together but one time
Though your heart felt lust for me
Rest again peacefully in a silence sublime
I'll be your angel, your Valkerie".
