Banshee

She wails to your soul The coming of pain The black fairy appears Voice of the undead in the darkness Waking through the mind Piercing my inner most shell Bringing the death of you Pure heart turns black cold I slowly open my eyes The nightmare begins To fade Let me see the colour of light My soul covers the heart in white To stop the rot of hell Saving it in times of darkness The shield of protection In black its bound to roam this earth Forever more One soul passes the graveyard of life Passing through fairyland Colours a blur the heart begins to beat searching with the eyes in living dead This body numb with pain a dusting of light appears angel rays appear through the cracks dark horse detects the vampire's grave Leaches sucking what's left crossing the undead hell a zombie I feel my pulse there is always hope Dark horse rears on his front legs slowly standing on his feet the mood changes the banshee heads straight to hell With the coachman of death on her tail rattling passed Two ivory coloured headless horses leading the carriage straight to hell Dumping the darkness into a bottomless pit locked away in the dungeons no more to see light I found you love dark becomes light colours everywhere my eyes wide open my hands outstretched Raising them high to the heaven's no more the fool the banshee buried deep in protection of my heart in the hope she wails no more Far away a distant thought some say she lives in the pain not heaven's light barred to the darkness where she never sleeps.

Wow! Amazing poem! I could feel the pain and deep emotion as I was reading this. Very well written, great imagery! I love the darker side of poetry. You might like my poem titled, "Lonely Soul". Please, read it sometime.
