Darkness

falling into shadow

I drink of the poisoned chalice with you

So spear my heart with your sword of hatred

For thou only know me as torments truth

Walk now with me amongst the darkened spate

 

Be thine soul shattered into evils den

That mine breath ne'er follow in pity's hand

And with demon breath mine heart beats with sin

That my name ne'er be spoke in time of man

 

Until your spoiled wine flow into my throat

And torrid lusting from your devil's kiss

With lies and deceit that bear me such gloat

That I seep in the pits of your abyss

 

Tis darkness that sparks to thine heart true beat

For ne'er a sunset this demon night speak

beth, this is delving, meditative, overshadowing, takes the reader to another place and time,
i am quickly becoming a fan of your work, the thought you put forth is defining, as well as
aristically poetic, the meanings draw upon soul emotions, and create pinnicle vivid imagery.
the impact of this poem is what darkenss is, in classic, thougth refined, crystal clarity,
a downward, spiraling subjugational, black hole of emotions, no less than masterfully scribed, mike
