Dance With Mistress Death

Written from my perspective over a year ago.

Relive the misery experienced,

Slash open old mental scars

To let the thoughts flow forth

Red as wine in ruby chalices.

I'll paint the cotton walls of my chamber

With the remains of the impure memories,

Actions of a murderer, killer, torturer.

Things I did oh so willingly.

I loved the dances with mistress Death,

Her cold fingertips cooled my sweaty skin.

A Venus of Dementia, she held me close

And each time we danced in darkness

She never stayed, she left me here.

I screamed for her to return to me,

Flirted with her throughout the days.

Then I'd get the courage to ask again

For one more terrible dance together.

What if I had convinced her finally

To take me to her sanguine realm?

Her ruby red hair and steel eyes

Come alive under the silver moon's gaze.

I'd follow my mistress wherever she'd will,

Trailing after like an obedient lupine.

Bound in chains by a cold look of her eyes

I'd be her prisoner forever more,

Destined to answer to her call

And die a thousand deaths over again.

Yet I'd be willing to do so easy.

Her darkness, completeness, her chill,

It has captured my heart fully.

Tonight, I shall call her to one last dance,

The one where I'll get on one knee

And deliver myself to her cold hands.

woahhhh.....chill....icy...dark....yet eerie.
I like this one, it's elegant and yet, unashamedly potent.
Like blood running down slate, flowing and yet rigid,
Or at least that's the mental Image I got.
Wonderful stuff, great new addition.~P
