Dark haunted cathedrals fill my mind I rest my eyes upon the lit black candle i hold The flame has eyes...a rapturing gaze My life is flickering before me Dancing to the beat of a silent drum Fleshy pleasures sweep into thought Like a thick mist in the evening valleys The cold essence of a cherished memory Wind-chimes delicately bliss my ears The resonant ringing vibrates my inner sanctum Gothic goddess abound me in black veils The eyes seduce my hopeless romanticism But my bloodline cannot cease And i look for my son's eyes Reminiscent eloquence shadows my future Pathways all lead me I am at the center of my own garden labyrinth I lead myself into the mystic planes of never The face in the candle is so soft and golden The silver in my jewelry shines like the moon beside saturn Only the night can unveil me the sky's brilliance Inanna send down a warm embrace She's my only true love... Mortal love is sadness Hapiness is grief...bliss is melancholy Isolated affection to those who hold the keys That open the steel-bolted doors within me Behind the oaken shell lies a vast darkness Embrace me and ye shall embrace the darkness She's my only true love... Mortal love is sadness Happiness is grief...bliss is melancholy Close thine eyes and feel the inner turmoil A storm before the calm Like the ravens flight, i do not want to land Only to soar o'er you all And seek shelter above the clouds With only the gods and my memories The center of my eye is the blackest black The true color of harmony All my goddesses are part of me Am i part of you? When shall i reach the top of the spiral staircase Only to hurl myself off the tower in spite I will scream out your names As i become one with the earth
