- - - INFERNAL IMMORTALITY - - -
Whispers of yesterday still resonate
Across the expanse of time and space
The tears of ravens wash my face
Your ghost of photographs leave me stained
Leaving black roses to brighten your tomb
The winter storm is hiding the moon
From our forest and sacred dunes
By the scorn of the succubus womb
I wish I had a spell
In all of this Hell
A spell to take me away
For all the sorcery
And your treachery
We can't make it past the grave
Call me a heretic
That I make you sick
Burn me with your ink
Tattooed as your freak
We lapped at haunted shores that we once knew
But then, all alone, I turn the screws
And now I wither without you
Splinter thy faith upon weathered pews
I wish I had a spell
In all of this Hell
A spell to take me away
For all the sorcery
And your treachery
We can't make it past the grave
Immortality
Is so goddamned
Infernal

This is such a dark passionate write. The imagery so very potent. The depth of heart...drips off the page.

and Goddamn rightfully so! ... A cry for peace, perhaps to be human once again but there`s something, someone keeping us & always down ... the pic is wicked for such a subtle write, it creates the perfect balance ... tattooed ink, this bleeds ... love you, my King ... ~yours, Devil~lyn

The picture set the mood for this dark piece. I'm sure the harsh feelings feels like its going last an eternity, you've described it well in this. We all have someone whose left a lasting effect on us. Beautifully tragic. Liike
