Phenithia

Born was she, so pure and white
Beauty given by the Lord of Fire
Krite,
Flesh of his flesh, Bone of his
Bone, in love born, in love
Grown:
Phenithia, Lady of Light-
A dream by day; a vision by night
Born out of the flames of his desire
The Lord of Fire, her sire.

She met her lover-tender and warm,
Son of the Lord of Airs child
They consumed the Holy Flames
Of the Lord of Fire, her sire.

Cursed and banished for what she
Had done, by consuming the flames
Of the Holy One.
Phenithia, Lady of Light-
Hides by day, wails in the night.
Cursed forever because of her desire
By the Lord of Fire, her sire.

Now silently in a forbidden place,
She hides her scarred and hideous face,
A face that frightened her lover away,
A punishment from the Lord of Fire,
Her sire.
So hidden in a cavern dark,
Soul in torment, a hated sparked,
Which forever grows and was inspired,
By the Lord of Fire, her sire.

Phenithia, Lady of Light-
Hides by day; wails in the night
Cursed forever because of her desire
By the Lord of Fire, her sire.

After Life?

Is Death such a terrible thing
Is there no joy that it can bring
In this world of hate and sorrow
We cannot look forward to tomorrow
We laugh and cry
We live and die
Some suffer so much
And know not why
One day it will come to pass
And each of us will know at last
When it is our turn under the Reapers knife
If there is an After Life.

The Wanderer


I am a wanderer.
I walk the halls of time.
I was here before the beginning.
I will be here after the end.
I thrive outside time.
I am eternal.

I am a wanderer.
I walk the halls of time.
I was here before the beginning.
I will be here after the end.

I am a wanderer.
I walk the halls of time.

I am a wanderer.

I am all that is unseen.

My Creation

If Darkness is what you crave,
Then into Darkness I shall enslave
For I embrace the night
And all who've seen me are
The victims of my delight.
No scream comes from thy lip
As thy blood I slowly sip.
Come behold my hunger
And my lust as into your flesh I thrust
All of my deep desire
To create a new VAMPIRE.

I Am The Night


Are you afraid of what you dont see?
The shadow that follows thee?
The voice that passes by your ear?
Or the tap on the shoulder when no one is near?
You hear footsteps, and turn to see.
What made the sounds that scared thee.
Yet nothing north, south, east or west.
Is God putting you through a Test?
Your heart begins to race.
A look of terror on your face.
You pray it is all a horrible dream.
You try to scream.
No sound comes from your lips.
You ARE afraid of the unseen.
But this is not a dream.
For I am always watching.
I am never far.
There is no escape until the day.
You can never win.
It is useless to fight.
For no matter where you go.
I AM THE NIGHT.
