My love has left me, And I mourn. My love has left me, Like the willow- Bent and forlorn. My love has left me, But I do not scorn. My love has left me, And she is gone. The roses in the garden Are no longer ghostly pale- Red as blood, As blood is red, And dawn is blue. How curious. How curious- The ripening of the roses. Once virgin snow, Now » Continue Reading

Beneath the pale wandering eye, Where shadows live and die, There lies a lake where no creature will tread, The surface reflects nothing, save trembling stars, The shores are white as bones, And the wind laments and moans, No mortal will sip or step, And return to tell of where evil had crept. They say she dwells therein- More than woman, the queen of night, Twisted beauty of ancient sin, And unb » Continue Reading

I much enjoy the starry shore, And the pines of yore, But if you wished it love, I would follow thee near or far. Forsake I would the hills of youth, And follow your western pursuit, To the ends of the earth, And to the sunset sea. If thee would go southward, Then I too forward, Hand in hand with thee, My first and only love. If thee settled in the dell and glen, » Continue Reading

Atop the solemn tower, She is there, The wilderness around does shrink and cower, And the pain of the world is hers to bear, Hers and hers alone, From her vantage where she rests, Withered as to a crone, In the crumbling realm no longer blessed, What now of her wisdom? It has not kept prosperity, Nor persevered her queendom, Or brought parity, Nay only dust, And broken stones, Swords long » Continue Reading

Hammer of god on anvil striketh, Sparks doth rain down, Within the fiery climate, Of the forge that lieth underground. Blue steel of alchemy, That glitters as starlight, Above the tower balcony, Ever glowing bright. No mere folly of man could compare, To the blade here forged, No finer have been know the wares, But in this castle gorge. Jewels doth glitter in the » Continue Reading

'Tis my last journey I begin, Death has sat down beside me, And I shall not win, Soon my soul shall wing free, Back to my creator, From whence I came, Take this, my succour, That on my lips I perish with your name, My dearest friend, And my only companion, Now is the end, And this realm I abandon, All my earthly travels, Have been made hand in hand, We have beheld many marvels, And be » Continue Reading

Along I went one sunny morn, I saw a little cat, But my touch it did scorn, So dejectedly I sat, And wished I'd never been born. » Continue Reading

I will never forget the day I first saw you Through the glass And when you first saw me Or did you see me first? And the way you smiled After I smiled And when I touched the glass You touched it back Since then Every day I rushed to see you To catch a glimpse of you And there you always are Waiting for me With your smile With you » Continue Reading

In the beginning there wert innumerable, But then there were two, One kind and honorable, And the other dark and cruel, Brother and sister were they, Alike and unlike, She had scales of deep blue and gray, But he was the black of night, In olden days, in times unrecorded, Man and dragon had agreement, That they would lay not a hand, Upon, or lest in wrath descent, And by this word they kept bound, » Continue Reading

No roses o'er thy grave, Nor polished mossy stones, But memory to save, The water depths cradle thy bones, No isle for thee, No cairn, nor stately mound, But the corals of the sea, And unreached by sound, Solemn rest ye, In thy sleep, Living shade in my memory, That time has not it's harvest reaped, Requiem for my daughter, Still hast fallen thy silver tress, To the black blade, and sensele » Continue Reading

Cauldron bubble, Coffer churn, Spelling trouble, As candles burn, The witch doth cackle, Around her darken brew, As the fire ebb and spackle, And liquid changes to violent hue, Death for the king, And for his queen, Darkness and despair I will bring, From my hovel unseen, Long dead shalt rise from their tomb, And crops shalt wilt unto the ground, The sky » Continue Reading
