Devil's Bride
You were standing on the beach alone
Sky was fading, blurring into night shadows
Wearing a white wedding dress
You waited with a bouquet of ruby red roses
The moon is glowing now, budding into a full moon
Pouring its molten silver on the ocean and on you
The devil comes, and here comes his darling raven
Out of shattered waves, out of dark that swollen
He kisses your leafy lips and embraces
Sanctifies you and deflowers your innocence
You became devil's bride, you are lying
In rose stained blood , celestial naked
The fiend has set you free from spasm and pain
Of your wildflowers' days
You feel flying like a shooting star
To deep black, far, far away, far
