Dark Saint's Dark Poetry

[Dark Saint Alaick]

Crow's Song

-Aquilla Rage





The clouds now gather above,
a reminder of Winter forseen
I open my door and marrow,
welcoming the veering wind

Essence of mahogany, cedar and pine touch my cheek
The wind ingesting the departed summer,
issuing it's own decree of fall


I descry a sommer crow
Contort, lumbering above with polished wings
His song fills my soul as we share a lament
My heart in longing with my friend
pulling in our deep sorrows

He notices me for but a moment,
Nothing more amassed
As on cue he finds a thermal
leaving me forsaken, widowed in twlight

Stepping out into the early night,
I lean over a still pond,
My hands touch fallen leaves
I long to hear my Crows song,
and drop tears in the remembering

Danse Macabre


-Aquilla Rage





Follow me into the void
Deep in mist and shadows I forbear
The chimera of this embrace is now at hand
Your desire for immortally, an edge away


In a danse macabre, you will Become
Succumb to the sounds, the offering
Claws racking at lesions
Mouths suckling luscious blades
Ruby ambrosia glistening in twilight


But before closing the path, I ask with fervent eyes
Let us kiss and hold your last breath
And go beyond the shadows, with a secrecy hallowed
Walk with me into ongoing forever
To never hide away, to never die again

Red Velvet


-Aquilla Rage





Lying on a bed of red velvet cushions
The door cracked open, wet footprints
leading outward.
Deep gashes and scratches in the wood from
fingers struggling to get out.

Your scent still caught in my hair
Your blood still on my lips

The screams echoing in my ears forcing
a low growl to escape my throat as I
recall the moments just past

If you had come to me willingly perhaps
with eyes bright, full of passion
Then maybe........

[Dark Saint Alaick]

Let Go


-Aquilla Rage





I am the eventide, the darkness you seek
My eyes, the gateway to amaranthine
Your flesh, liquid reverence


With a stroke of your fingers
I will burn for days
scaring my life, A laurel I wear, proudly

I see the night in your eyes
The death of the many, the salvation of none
Unquestionably I become your wretch, your thrawl

When we embrace, pools of blood ensue
I taste the sweetness there on the landing,
smearing the temped life across my lips
Then lying in a mere bath of yearning
I invite you willingly and let go my earthly bounds

CHILD OF THE NIGHT


-Annie


A Child of the Night
From the abyss
My darkened world
Entered she.
A light brilliant
Received into
My chasm of despair.
Of her know I only
Thru fingers delicate
The words she does send.
Desires, hopes and dreams
Nocturnally quietly shared.
On wings of an Angel
Unto my shadowed existence
Intoxication she did cultivate.
Upon this desolate Soul
With empathy reaching out
Of my doubts she shared.
Her Music is Life eternal
But only one Man
Her heart stolen has he.
With ethereal love divided
By miles countless
Of their sacrament
The power be destiny.
Life is hard said she once.
Of this I understand.
No doubt have I
That this be sincere
Her freedom
Strength will be.
Thankfulness I confer
For friendship reciprocated
And to her
Magickal wishes
For the Life craved.

INCIDENTAL ENCOUNTER


-deadlywhispers


To live Life
Upon my
Ears deafened
Stories I whisper.
Misery embraced
As entombed dreams
Are abandoned.
Searing flesh
Wrought with sin
Compares not
Within the skin
I reside.
Through
Door of Hades
Find I passage.
Trembling
In solitude
Emerging
Surrender I
This relinquished
Soul
Unto the night.
Welcomed
Are you
To crawl
Within the chasm
Of my cynical
Demented mind.
Walk cautiously
As darkness
Devours
Your radiance.
Enter
Suffering
Encircled
By chains
And endure
Memories haunted
That confine
My thoughts
With endless agony.
Among coldness
Dwell I each day
While as
A prisoner
I survive.
In your presence
Beg I release
From this
Pain of Life.
Amid
My dead soul
Through
A River of Blood
You journey.
Within my torment
Let your heart soak
Allowing freedom
From my anguish.
Buried within
Hushed silence
Of Eternity
Myself I whore
Only to be
Swallowed deep
Within loneliness
Everlasting.
Until next
Our incidental
Encounter
Incessantly
Whisper I
Stories unending....

NAKED I STAND


-deadlywhispers


Before Myself
Naked I stand
Apathetic and Vulnerable.
Craving for Breath
Contemplated.
Agonizing Soul swallows
Relentless loneliness.
Invocation lifted
On broken wings
Bequeaths no apology.
Amid shadows
I shroud
As upon me
Death inquires.
Derangement encircling
This tragedy
Into my World
He has adorned.
Heretofore
Deceased heart
Consecrated by
Poetic script.
Everlasting
Ethereal voice
Affords ecstasy.
Impending lucidity
Reprieved
By majestic presence.
Lyrical darkness
Illuminates consciousness.
Profound
Eyes of Jade
Bid hunger
To endure
Life's cruelty.
From a poisonous world
He has extricated
This defenseless Being.

QUIET DESOLATION


-deadlywhispers


Walk I
In quiet desolation
Along Life's
Endless Path
Torrents of rain
Cry away
Silent pain
Distant memories
Flood
Restless thoughts
Eyes
No longer see
That which is
The essence
Of reality
Struggle I
To swallow
My sorrow
While carried
To a place
In this
Troubled Soul
That only
I perceive
The darkness
Eternally deep
My heart
Bleeding
Endeavors to
Breathe against
The ever present
Question
Of mere existence
Search I
For times past
Only to realize
They are
But a drop
In this
Boundless ocean
Making
Quiet waves
In the vastness
Of a
Mind imprisoned
Today is only
Yesterdays tomorrow
As walk I
In quiet desolation
Down
Life's endless Path
Until
The light
Of this
Mortal existence
Is exhausted
And complete...
