"Duilghe an t'uaibrreach do cheannsugadh."
Mists Enshroud and Veil Those Who Weep
Dusk, when both do battle for right to reign.
Evil lurks in the mind of another
Stop to listen to the silence of it.
Never knowing who is watching too close
Your mind over flows with dangers.
This place, no more singing
Only calling your name.
The angel with ebony wings folded
Is you, and you, my dark angel.
Snake like skin feels cold across mine
Moving slowly with a light touch.
Eyes closed, mouths close, love wanting arms
Open eyes, holding only the thought.
Turn Out the Light
Another Day, Another Night
Another problem, another fight
Walking the razor's line
Living years in an hour's time.
The world what it never will be
As we face foes we cannot see
Listening to riddles by the mute
Finding myself under your boot
Blind leading me through the hall
The world sputters and it stalls
I let it rest and then push it along
Through another confusing song
I look for the answer through tears
But it lay in the tales the deaf can hear
And the dreams of the insomniacs
Looking for light in a world of black
And order in the castle of chaos
For something beautiful within us
But it's a quest that's ridiculous
The trip of life has been a bust
Another holy war for the irreverent
As they return all that I've sent
Another martyr in the neighborhood
He should and he could if he only would
Another black line on the calender
Another harsh truth for the tender
One more day of internal emptiness
And the least for those with less
A few more dollars for the rich
Another scar that can't be stitched
With flowery words from he and they
Hollowness dwells in every word they say
Once more, that's make three times deceived
And once again I am strangely relieved
To know that only failure is inevitable
Makes this crazy life a bit more stable
What do you think? What do you see?
What do you know and what do you dream?
Can you tell me a tale that's never been told?
Tell me please is there fire burning in the cold.
And lie to me say that the sun will come again
Fool me and tell me I will understand it then
And let me live in these comforting words
And let me give up on the real answers
Let me lay in the question's grasp
And let truth tumble from my clasp
And let it smash upon the hard reality
That follows fools like you and me. . .
~tenderly kisses her Sister's Beautiful face,
squeezing her delicate hand within her own,
obscidian eyes filled with words naught able to be
said...slowly she rises...slipping free wistfully of
her sister's embrace, nods and curtsies to her
Sister's king, closes her eyes as the shadows creep
alongthe floor, swirling about her shrouding and
cloaking her in their embrace, thunder rumbling in
the far distance as the apparitions begins to fade
and diperse~
Sorrow's memory, sorrow's dark light
I stand against thee now,
Looking toward the future ever bright.
And to sorrow's dread wiles I shall not fol
d Before me stands the one
to hold sorrows at bay
Offering love and kindness to my hand
Unwavering and all that I could rightly ask.
Days shall come, days shall pass
But this day, this moment spent with thee,
Within my heart shall ever last
Bound by all the love to me shown
Shine the moon, shine the stars
Yet they dimly glow
Against the warmth of the love
Given me this tender eve.
~Queen Edain Siveni Godslayer~: ~terror beginning to undo her...silent scream in
muffled panic...unseen through the featureless
dark...far in the Forest, trumpets shrill..the clarion
distress borne downwind~
~low and urgent...all words meaningless noise as she
braces in the Shadowed dark for retaliation now
beyond any power to revoke~
Locked within this awakened heart
Forevermore thou shalt have this place
As first to touch my soul so deep.
Glory glows upon the sky
Marking passage of night to day
As in my heart the love shines so
Marking passage of sorrow to joy.
How can I thee show
The strength of this, my love and joy?
With these tender words spoken openly
I pray that I shall make my start.
~skies rumble with darkness abound the ski awash
with the swirl of the dancing colors of the
auroras...lightening crashes, the rains begin,
howling winds scream through the night, and in
the skies far off be the swiftly moving blaze of the
comets threatening to crash and kiss the earth
passing overhead brightening the darkness in a
brilliant glow, the colors descend and awash the
mountains in a firey glow as the skies dance with
the eternity of that which once was~
~Queen Edain Siveni Godslayer~: ~the bang of a thunderclap rips the sky into light....in
strong defense..hurled the gift of white light full
force into counterthrust against Shadow..~
~bolts split the darkness like craze lines dashed
through obsidian~
~willfull, coldblooded dance ...the need blooms and burns, to
hammer force against force, until one or both lay
devastated~
~her body limned in actinic bursts of glare..surging toward
the place her Sister stood...~
~lips peeled back from bared teeth in a mask that abjures
any claim to mortal origin~
~then silence, eerie stillness and quiet~
