Literature Text

Here in the shadows kissed by candle flame
My heart weeps its song as I whisper her name.
A vestal Queen of the purest kind
A haunting face I'll never find.

I fell for every fools advice
From grimoire pacts to sacrifice
I danced upon the Devils stage
Each failed attempt consumed with rage.

My Angel whom God did betray
From my side they stole her away
His servant whom he did forsake
Bound and burned upon the stake.

Madness may you call my love
My soul; it screamed to God above
My need is deeper than desire
To gather wings ravaged by fire.

Blood now stains my broken hands
I've murdered light throughout the lands
And now I fear her ghost is lost
As my damned soul forfeits the cost.

I want her back but death adores her
Bleed as I had always for her.
My broken heart knows only pain
Tonight I'll die for her again...
Her ashes slipped through my hands.
