Liberator

This is a song about death. Could be interchanged with "Supernatural/Occult."

Night descending unto the earth,

Wicked wisdom, cloaked in black,

Shrouded shadow, confiscating,

Never giving anything back.

 

In the darkness,

I will find you,

Make your nightmares

Breathe down your neck.

 

Pitch black wings with scaled feathers,

Freeing those constrained to life.

Bound in shackles, I beseech you,

Liberate me from this strife.

 

I call your name.

 

Your touch, so cold.

 

Infernal vanquisher,

Eloquent median,

Eternal solution,

Rise from your grave.

Fear gains lead when reason faulters.

Meet your fate and destructor.

Face him now, for your time has come.

Death will be your liberator.

 

-Take the hand of death and walk with him into oblivion.-

 (Free me now)

 

Hand of death. Satan's spawn.

Subject of the reaper's song.

Site of blackness. Gate of despair.

Taker of lives, beyond all compare.

 

Hand of death. Satan's spawn.

Subject of the reaper's song.

Decaying father. Decrepit healer.

Liberating all, the ancient life stealer.

 

Death will be your savior.

[Clouded in Hopeful Illu..]

I have never read something quite like this. You have a unique voice and I think you should showcase it whenever possible. You say this is a song, and I can tell that the music that would have to go with this would be eerie. I like it as a poem, however.

Great piece of work.

Congratulations for winning the Haunted contest!

Love the flow and rhyme scheme in this creative piece

[Melissa Kesead]

Love the flow and the story that unfolds!

Chilling. I can see the dark shadow falling upon a sleeping soul. Wicked, calm, sinister, and ultimately...CREEPY. You really captured the creep factor here. As a fellow songwriter, and having read some of your other work, I must say you have a natural talent for writing in an almost gothic flair. You make me think of bands like Evanescence, Hinder, and Saving Abel, with a hint of Linkin Park. I mean this as a compliment. Keep up the great work.

[With Each Raindrop Come..]

Very well written, I like it! finalist!

[Blade & Blood (The ..]

Lol Nice ending. "Death will be your savior." Isn't that true?

I swear, dude, every time I read one of your poems and you say it's a song, I hate myself for not being able to hear the guitars and drums and such to go with it. :P

Anyways, this is an awesome poem! I have to say that even if it's dark, it's sort of calm and sinister, and I really like that about it. As I read it, I feel like how I'd hope to feel when my number is called up; calm, quiet, and curious. Awesome job! I can't believe I haven't read this bit sooner. lol

Ironically Yours, Blade and Blood

WOW! on of the best poems i have heard in a long time. Kind of ironic that you would use satans spawn because my band was called Spawn of Satan. It never got off of the ground though....hey need a bassist? Im free. Yea i dont know what else to tell you about your poem other than it was amazing. Its like the epiphony of darkness and death. I love it.

[Silent Pacer]
