Love

Being able to dream is most forgivable
For it is only in dreams where we now meet
Although our encounters have so much sorrow
Love, at rest and silent, belongs to our hearts.

When we meet under dark skies and crimson clouds
The many kisses that we exchange fly on their own
To here, everywhere, but never to their destinies:
They’re forever sealed.

In our eyes there’s still the same Passion of old
Still enduring secret desires to extinguish it.
But non the less we have tears in our faces
and Despair lives in our mortal souls.

Foolishly maybe, but yet so passionately
We fight our way to everlasting love
So we can walk again, hand by hand
Forever deeply trapped in blue illusion.

But, oh! Why did Death placed Her gaze upon us?
Why did She saw you, only you, and no one else?
She came with ebon wings and foul creatures followed
To take you cruelessly from my affectionate side.

My Beloved lights washed away in Her Night
Leaving my eyes sightless and my soul crushing
While I hear a pitiless laughter rising from nowhere
and receive snow-like kisses: soft, cold and cruel.

But who’s to blame in this tragic tale?
A Beast that fell in love with Love, or
A Loves beauty that seduces the Beast?
…I’m the one crying alone in a dim mortality…

Losing the destiny of our Passion attracts the Agony
Of living without wanting to, of breathing the fires of Pain.
My Love, can you feel me going down in the depths
Of Sorrow like only a creature of mortal birth can go?

With my arms riddled with scars and open wounds
Not wanting to lose some little, resistant, Hope
I keep searching in my mysterious humanity
For the beauty of my never-ending Love.

Holding tight to piercing memories
Death took away all that was dear
And left me bleeding in the Night
Of my worthless soul buried in Ache.

I just wish for a kiss from my Love
A venomous kiss that would revive me
With fiery and fearsome pain from
This lonelisome, mortal apathy.

But where’s my Love now, wrapped
In some deadly desire in dark lands,
Surrounded by dark necrophilic lusts
Lying in silk veils of Death’s slaves?

I love my undying Love and I love His tears
I just don’t love when He lives in His fears.
My Darling, I’m completely torn apart
devoided of the Beauty of our love.
Eternally yearning for the scarlet kisses
Of my Loves scarlet, passionate lips
Searching, calling for something more in vain
I die a thousand times with my pain.

Shining bright showing His vanity
In the sinister side of the moon
My Love sings my lullaby song
In whispers of love born yesterday.

Forever ensnared in dark Eternity
We are separated by Imortality
Crying for the mysterious mist
Of lovers embraces and final caresses.

Divided until the day Eternity and Mortality
Encounter each other again in the End
When Life and Death returns to Nothing
And the Night wraps this world in the Void.

You were the only one I could ever love
And the only one I wanted to say that I love
But the simple word “Love” itself
Already died and went away with you.
