Image for the poem I AM DARKNESS

I AM DARKNESS


The virtue of tomorrow is venomous
How can it top bitter days
As the blood pours from your veins?
I see the passion in your eyes
As you cast your envy over me

the last of you
precedes the dawn

The loving embrace of dusk is virtuous
We can be together now
I'll come out of your nightmares
I can feel the need in your touch
We caress the carcass of your fears

the dawn precedes
the last of you

I
AM DARKNESS
I
INSIDE YOU
I
AM DARKNESS
I
INSIDE YOU

Furies of the departed are still revolting
Pulsating inside my bed
Of stone gardens carved for mourn
Who can hear the shiver in my voice
That thunders within the coming storm?

the last of you
precedes the dawn

The revolting angel that haunts my shoulder
Falls victim to my left hand
As the devil strikes once more
And the heart of man can't take it still
As our freewill walks out the door

the dawn precedes
the last of you

I
AM DARKNESS
I
INSIDE YOU
I
AM DARKNESS
I
INSIDE YOU

All of the worlds I have seen are dark now
When Venus lost her grace and fell from the stars
And all the love I've ever felt it dead now
Can you fathom the abyss that awaits you?

All the atrocities
And the blasphemies
That I am
Has always been the same

the last of you
precedes the dawn

I
AM DARKNESS
I
INSIDE YOU
I
AM DARKNESS
I
INSIDE YOU

the dawn precedes
the last of you
