The Winter's Lullaby

"The Winter's Lullaby" 


Choking noble light held by the hands of Fate                              

As deceived Persephone enters Hades gate                               

The burning suns falling through the universe.                          

Despairing and alone not a coppers worth                                        

   

A bitter cold blankets Gaia's tears in a frozen sea of glass                             

While the stupefied intoxicated serpent drowned with a laugh.                

Undulating sands barricades into immovable glacier,                                

Infectious prison walls destroyed the strength of redeeming savior.      

  

Chariot of the flame plunges  into the water’s bed                                  

Fate’s tepid scarlet scissor hands sever the music thread                       

Astaea’s darkened soaked mural melts with eternal dread                    

Seeing red, alluring sirens sang as the music bled                  
 
 

Unfathomable lamented shrieks surged as the music tore                           

Obsidian tributaries erodes the forbidden door                                                                           

Eros scorned wound feeds the ravished horde of succubi               

Remote hollow temple bell wailed the closing cry                                   

Captured in the dance of loves and hates tempest cyclone               

Drums of madness orchestrates into the perfect tone                          

The infernal flame explodes from the mouth of Tartarus            

Driven oblivion crescendos for the pending chorus                                       

The stentorian cracks  of nefarious shots being fired                  

Frantically gasping for the final breath of faith hope and desire                      

Tragic petrified tears from soundless screams of the choir                

Condemned whisper of the drum crucified on barbed wire                                     

Cold candle rests under the gaze of the vastness                                    

No kiss or love to awake the entombed princess                                 

Crimson emaciated curtains descend upon the floor                            

Fathomless, eviscerated, veiled; the music is no more
