Nostalgia

(~Nostalgia~

She remembers

The memories brought back by the sound of a song
Familiar beat brushing by like melodies of butterfly wings
As feathers drift down from a sky gone black
The white hem of her gown brushes by
And she is gone again, candle in her hand.

She remembers

The feelings that come from yesterdays' tomorrow
The way warmth surrounded her like arms around corpses
Nostalgic, the feeling of love
That she clutches tight in her bosom
To make memories fall like rain
That drifts from the blue of her eyes

She remembers

That love was once yesterday and is always today
That the memory of him will linger and last
To flutter on the wind of her breaths
Even as her hands reach for something
Grasping, reaching, twisting
Knowing that it is but empty air

She remembers

Wide-spread sheets of white
In dim, cold hallways of home
Alone yet not, wanderer or companion
Memories of a rose long forgotten,
Of a garden lost in time
Of someone she could call home

She remembers

That memories linger
And rain will always fall to turn the stained glass grey
Cold will come, and warmth
Pain, then joy
Sadness and comfort
Tears with smiles

And a hand will reach out for hers.

Tears





Hot, the tears of blood

The blood of tears

Bleeding from a skull torn assunder by a captive soul

Crying her heart out to the heavens above

It rains
To the petals that bloomed on the dew-dropped grounds

Scarred by the emotions that tear her apart

A cold sound of sorrow
Soundless as her feet walk by


The light of day

Mocking her like a dream out of reality

Thoughts floating from an unbarred mind

Are red like tears that fall down her face


She knows nothing,
she knows not

Yet time shows her everything

The bitter path her soul trod on

Littered with the thorns that pierce her feet
Staining the earth red with the tears of her life
Tearing her apart like the blade on her skin
Making her numb... cold...
Poor little puppet by the end of her strings

A discarded doll of her own hopes

To a bleak and lifeless


Mourn


The steps that she takes

The tears that she weeps

The blood that she bleeds
That will never stop for eternity


Like water from a fountain

Her tears fall
Colored crimson with the tears of her soul

And black like the emotions of her heart

You see her skin, it's red

From the carving of her heart on her wrist

Yet she does not know what to do

She does now know how to stop

Tears from falling down like rain

Broken



(~Broken True~

Broken...

A hidden fragment in a shattered soul

Bleeding inside her heart

Circle of thorns pricking her to


Death

Will not come

Though she can't live no more

She remains broken
Like a doll whose strings are cut
Lifeless little girl
Staring out of lifeless deep green eyes


Mother, what have I done?
Tell me, please comfort me
This pain will not go, it's killing me
What can I do, mama?

Help...


The young girl cries in her silence

Misery in her mind

Her secret in her soul
She cannot voice it out
Will not voice it out
But is damned for eternity

To bring her secret to the grave

Every inch of her life

Consuming her

Like Hellfire


The angel needs the devil
Needs him badly, wants him to comfort her
But no!
She cannot tell him!

Lest he hate her!
Lest he turn away from her!


How?
What can she do?

Little girl... what will you do?
You're broken

Broken like a piece of glass
Shattered into a thousand pieces
Of guilt

Piece her back together...

Piece her back...
Before the blade falls on her upturned throat

And she leaves happiness behind...

Yet again

Fantasy Overture



(~The Fantasy~
Picture copyright of Redeemer-of-light
Link: The Fantasy)

Music in my ears, moonlight dances
Softly as they fall, the night's for us
Time runs out, the first body falls
Nightingale, nightingale, sing out your call
The old house and the dark room beckons
Shadows dripping off the wall like poison
Wingless, the angel makes her way
Further still from the night of day
See the mist, the weeping willow
Old oak, dropping leaves on your pillow
Toss and turn, my slumbering love
Listen, 'tis the voice of the dove
Singing out your funeral march
As people gather, small and large
Look upon her sleeping face
Young, immortal in her age
A fantasy, the dreamer's mind
True in sleep and given to life

Moonlight Sonata



(~Moonlight Sonata~
Picture copyright of icedance
Link: Moonlight Sonata)

Moonlight Sonata
Sustained slowness
As delicate as a midnight bloom
Softly, slowly, let your fingers fly
My little dead girl walking
The music soothes your soul
A young funeral march
Ancient in it's ways
Delicate... In the moon's song.

Dance for me, my little butterfly
Let your soul sing out your grief
You who call out to me
Give me your cold hand
For this macabre dance is ours
Shadows...
Accentuated by the moon's light
A sonata numbered one and four
But the first move is ours

Oh, how she smiles, how sweet her smile
Her fingers dancing, flitting over the keys
A flourish, a swirl of mahogany, skin and light
A piano sitting in the moon's soft light
Death ignored by the side of the door
She sings, yet her voice is unheard
A sonata of darkness singing for her

Stop, rise to your feet
I am waiting, my love... waiting...
For years and years
Yes, you are mine
You have called for Death
Death is here, my Queen
Your beauty fades not, for you are mine
For eternity

Fallen angel, play now your song
Dressed in white moonlight
Flowers of mourning in her hair
Sleep, my dear... close your tired yees
Let your weary vody rest
Here in my arms
As I steal your last breath away

Moonlight Sonata
Sustained slowness
As delicate as a midnight bloom
Fourteen lilies at the feet
Of my little dead girl, not quite asleep

Sonata number fourteen, Moonlight
First movement,
Adagio Sostenuto

Go on...
Play it again

I dare you

Bleeding Scars


(~Minutes to Midnight~

Link: Minutes to Midnight)


I still remember the words you said
To this day
Drove a stake through my heart
Closing my eyes I fall

Death...
Hangs at my door
But the blood still runs
From scars made by thorns
Around a bleeding heart

Slowly... slowly... life ebbs away
And the angel dies in silence
Impaled on her blade
White wings droop, broken feathers on the ground
Her legs are in shackles
Her arms in chains

Bound by lies
Poisoned by words
Killed by grief
She is dead

Waiting, I sleep
Sleeping, I wait
Suspended in this hourglass of time
I fold my wings
My broken wings
Shattered through my broken heart
I pick up the pieces
Of a mirror I once knew
Of a reflection that I once was

But I am not now

The mirrors, they shatter
The scars, they open
She can't forget... I can't
Forget this pain
This love
Your love
That you promised me
But it never came true, like sand through
My fingers that move
Hovering...
Over the sword in her heart

There is no scar
But crimson flows just like the evening tide
Red with the color of a bloody sunset
The sea washes her tears of
Blood, that bleeds from her wounds

My wounds
Your words
My memories
Your ghost
My scars
Your love

I bleed

To

Death

Moments


(~Goodbye to Romance~
Picture copyright of Liliana Sanchez
Link: Goodbye to Romance)

Alone she lies
Broken
Lost in her memories
Memories of those she loves
The lost angel
With broken wings

Alone

Lying on her bed
In her dark room
Wishing they were with her right now
Wishing she had someone
Wishing they didn't have to fight
Wishing she was alive

Tears
Running down her cheeks
Minutes
Ticking by on the clock
She doesn't move

I'm sorry
They tell her
As they watch her
One day we'll be together again
I'm sorry

Think of the moments
That pass by
The wings
Her soul
The memories
Her heart
How can it be?
As she softly sings
Herself to sleep

Alone in her room
For the soft touch of a hand
Running through her hair
Aching
She doesn't know what to do
A desprate cry for help
A cry for someone to comfort her

The moments of her life
Are slipping by
And she can't help but forget
That she will be alone
Is alone

No one there for her
Shadows as her friend
Trapped
In her misery
She wants them back

Come back
Come back
She cries out to them
Cries out to life
Don't leave me alone...
Don't leave me alone
I need someone
Return my life

Return it

Return those moments

Return them to

Me...
