The Battle
Two men have I
Each so gentle and kind
One of the dark
And one of the light
This day I followed after the dark
The light did come to set a spark
And in a cold and musty dungeon
My men did find their fight
Music starts
And then come sparks
But darkness finds a stronger ring
A tone so wild
Marred by the fires
I feel a heat inside me rise to lapping flames
But then the light it warms my soul
It makes me feel as though I’m whole
And in the fading dawn I stand
With my man who holds my hand
But darkness does rise
And I do writhe
With confusion on my heart
Where, does it end?
Where, did it start?
As he takes me on a ride
All my thoughts they slip from life
There is death so strong and pure
Etching itself into my demeanor
Ebb and flow I feel my blood
And, oh, does he profess his love
But the light holds through the night
And when the dawn breaks I do cry
One who loves and one who needs
Yet they carry out such deeds
They do fight with such a strength
The battle is so beautiful to me
And as each man takes my hand
I sit firmly in the sand
I want them both but don’t understand
How do you taste so greatly of both these men?
And then it comes and I do drown
The darkness wins the battle for now
But yet I hold with fleeting grip
The light who touches me with fingertips
Who will win the war?
I am not sure
But the battle
Is now settled
And the darkness
Holds the mist
The queen of stars and ice,
Shadows kiss
And she shall rule this night
Summer Sweat
When the sweet summer sweat is hard to forget
And the Strawberry Wine has always got fizz
Where the weeping willows bow to no gallows
And the peace is serene for love is about
As I hear her name
My heart beats rapid with shame
Shall they know what we did?
Shall we do it again?
The moon our silver hide out
With laughter we cry out
For we have found the love
We have felt the touch
And time holds no spell
When lovers do dwell
In midnights sweet summer
Away from the worlds hell
So where are you now
Sweet bride of mine?
Is this not what I have come to find?
I hear you cry
I hear your moans
Where is your lover, that he might come home?
When did he last touch you
Or lay you down
No matter now
I am around
They say you still have him
Close in your heart
I know you will hold him
Until we do part
I hope he has loved you
As much as ye need
For it was my kiss
That stole your sweet virginity
Yes I am him
The one that you love
And now that I hold you
I see the white dove
Please do not leave me
Or heartbreak bring
For it is your kiss for me
That makes me insane
It is your touch that brings me to my knees
I love you so much and now I do plead
Never leave me
Always be
Loving woman
Meant for me.
The Call
She awoke to a dead lover
One morning during a cold summer
She had lost her virginity
And he had lost his will to live
She washed him of his blood
And laughed harsh with abandonment
Her cold laughter rang out
And sent a misty chill about
All within a mile did cringe
For they knew soon would come her revenge
And in her hysteria she did dwell
As the darkness cast its sickening spell
Then as the queen she did rise up
But found no one to pass the cup
And so she called near and far
To all the lands and to the stars
She called for dark and deathly beings
She called for those who lost their feelings
For every dark and cold suicide
She spoke to them in a voice of warmth
And made them to know her storm
The queen of the dark
The queen of the ice
The queen of the stars
And she found her people once and for all
She passed not the crown
But stayed around
She killed and drank
And found no shame
And as her life progressed her death did gain
Until she found no warmth again
She drank until she could not anymore
But when she died she lived again
And she became Immortals queen
And they did come to find themselves
The dark children of her own hell
Shadows Kiss
