The Winter's Lullaby

"The Winter's Lullaby" Choking noble light held by the hands of Fate As deceived Persephone enters Hades gate The burning suns falling through the universe. Despairing and alone not a coppers worth A bitter cold blankets Gaia's tears in a frozen sea of glass While the stupefied intoxicated serpent drowned with a laugh. Undulating sands barricades into immovable glacier, Infectious prison walls destroyed the strength of redeeming savior. Chariot of the flame plunges into the water’s bed Fate’s tepid scarlet scissor hands sever the music thread Astaea’s darkened soaked mural melts with eternal dread Seeing red, alluring sirens sang as the music bled Unfathomable lamented shrieks surged as the music tore Obsidian tributaries erodes the forbidden door Eros scorned wound feeds the ravished horde of succubi Remote hollow temple bell wailed the closing cry Captured in the dance of loves and hates tempest cyclone Drums of madness orchestrates into the perfect tone The infernal flame explodes from the mouth of Tartarus Driven oblivion crescendos for the pending chorus The stentorian cracks of nefarious shots being fired Frantically gasping for the final breath of faith hope and desire Tragic petrified tears from soundless screams of the choir Condemned whisper of the drum crucified on barbed wire Cold candle rests under the gaze of the vastness No kiss or love to awake the entombed princess Crimson emaciated curtains descend upon the floor Fathomless, eviscerated, veiled; the music is no more
