Life, Death, and ReLife
Praying for the lives of those
Who are ill, wounded, or dying,
A brave young woman stands alone
As the souls undergo purifying.
Her long white hair swirls in the air
As the stars twinkle around her and the moon,
She pleads for Donn to take them home
To settle forever in the great Annwn.
The funeral pyre is finally lit
And the body is set ashore,
Just another hard-fought warrior
To be turned into ancient lore.
She suddenly falls to her knees
And fireflies erupt into the sky,
Floating between the pyre’s embers
And her forever silent cry.
Peaceful times remain again,
As the embers die and turn to ash,
They fall slowly to the ground
As the first swords start to clash.
As the moon rises higher into the sky
The clan’s warriors show their mettle,
War cries fill the humid air
As the blood begins to settle.
With bloody footprints in the soil
The young Druidess escapes,
With the help of her young friend
Into the forest, they traipse.
Hiding from the incoming marauders
They find it is no
Depression is like an open door.
Allowing dark thoughts to enter,
Flowing through my jumbled mind
Like wine through a decanter.
It is a threatening, evil beast
Whispering of no tomorrows,
No one can truly understand
The feeling of eternal sorrows.
I have long ago lost my last hope
That I will live a normal life,
Not when the hungry demon
Continues to feast of my strife.
In this darkened forest
That one could call my soul,
Forever wandering amongst the trees
Toward the endless shore.
The blackened waters whisper
Of forever being lost,
Never to find the glistening light
The savior to my ghost.
Oh, my God, my sacred Lord
Why have you forsaken me?
Never to find eternal rest
Never to be free?
The pallid light above me
Emitted from the moons,
Creates living shadows
Amongst the shifting lagoons.
Whisper white hands
Reach from the still waters,
Followed by the shrill laughter
Of the forgotten daughters.
Oh, my God, my sacred Lord
Why have you forsaken me?
Never to find eternal rest
Never to be free?
The darkened forms come forward
Their emaciated bodies shiver,
As the cold, still air surrounds
Them, and the many rivers.
Their sunken yellow eyes
See nothing but death,
Reach out to me
As I take my last breath.
Oh, my God, my sacred Lord
Why have you forsaken me?
Never to find eternal rest
Never to be free?
Falling into the waters
Reaching toward the
Through the ebbing light
And as the ashes fall,
A deafening heartbeat,
Begins to crawl.
The shadows become darker
As hands that beckon grow,
The pallid skin of my beloved,
And of my greatest foe.
Bleeds into the oblivion,
Of an unknown world,
The gleaming blade of Destiny,
From the sallow hand, unfurled.
With searching eyes, I gaze
Into the depths of his own,
With a luminous smile,
He stands up from his throne.
He takes my hand in his
And guides me down the path,
Forgotten souls and evil imps,
Glower at me with pure wrath.
I smile serenely at them
Knowing of our fates,
We will never be allowed,
Through those pearly gates.
As I take my Destiny
Within my trembling hands,
I give into the eternal darkness,
And become queen of these desolate lands.
With a contented sigh
Around me, the spirits revel,
I close my emerald eyes and listen,
To the whispering wings of The Devil.
Shadows dancing along the wall
Reminds me of happier times,
But I’ve been stuck in this cold, dark cell
Since my supposed crimes.
I never meant to fall in love,
But how was I supposed to defend against you?
I was yours from the very beginning
But only you knew.
Every little touch you gave me
Sent shivers down my spine
We thought we had forever
But we missed the biggest sign.
Cancer, the taker of innocent lives
Ran rampant through your body
I screamed for God to spare you
But he ignored my desperate plea.
My love was taken from me
No more dancing under the stars,
No more intimate kissing
Of my battle scars.
No one sees the newest wound
For I hide it from the rest
But it is the most painful
And located in my chest.
My life has grown quite darker
Now that you have passed on,
Tears are my only companion
As I become Depression’s pawn.
Depression is a lonely bastard,
For he keeps me in my cell,
Never releasing me to the world
No matter how loud I yell.
So until my final moments
And I

The Biggest Part of Me
Heaven knows that I have tried
Hell acknowledges it too,
That I have wept a thousand tears
Because I am missing you.
Death did not come quickly
To release you from life’s grasp,
I’ll always live with that thought
And our hands forever unclasped.
I know that I fight to smile
To pretend everything is alright,
But my whispered cries are only heard
In the dead of night.
So, if you care about that special someone
Never let an “I love you” go unsaid,
Or you will be like me, forever
With nothing up ahead.
So please sit back, my dear friend
And listen to my quiet plea,
Because I am eternally missing
The biggest part of me.
Living within the shadows
Consumed with the sin
Hunted by the demons
And their evil king
Colors flow through the darkness
As the demons chase
Ready to battle
Over the elven race
One soul has the power
To save the dying world from
The Demon King
And his tainted warriors
Journey through Ashtorne
Where Angels and Demons collide
In an everlasting battle against The Ancients
Aided by the elusive Hunters on each side
Who will win the battle in
ElementalEyes?
Through the endless tears I’ve shed
And bargaining with all the Gods,
I have been left completely alone
Forced to face my own façade.With a forced smile here or there
And maybe with whimsical laughs,
I hide the ugly truth deep inside
For my family and friend’s behalfs.They all say it gets better with time
But who will fill this empty hole,
Left behind by the man I loved
And who once owned me heart and soul.They don’t know the emptiness I feel
Or the dark thoughts inside my head,
They see who I want them to see
Not the me who is decaying and half dead.I’ve been told I can’t catch ghosts
And I know this may be true,
But until my final moment...
