A Night Beneath The Moon
Love seems to run through my fingers
Oh, my lost Muse, come and cope with me
For all that was ours, and all that is gone
For the bleeding Christ and his rotten child
For all the sin that in thy name I committed
Come here by my side once again, never again
To feed your child, death rises in my veins
Let me taste your bitter breast one last time.
Mother of my non-existence, dreadful art Thou
Rising up high, lost in your waning Moon
Come once and for all, take my soul
I cannot go on, chastise me harder, and make me feel
All your rage and anger, deception at least
Doomed by my own guilt I must be
So lend me thy blody nails of Pain
And scar my skin with thy trepidation.
Please, I prithee, take me with Thee
Love has deceived me one last time
I do not believe in It anymore.
No my son, your guilt condemns Thee
No more shall Thou behold my grace
Down in thy diminishing orb Thou lay
And for eternity it must be on this mark
For a virgin will never forgive Thee
And all the tears She cries,
Will be thy bitter mark upon Earth
Liar, wretched daughter of Babalon
Thou tempted me that night
Thy sweet words melted my heart and will
Never a single needle through thy soul I seek
Yet thy disgrace and obscure manners,
All of them deep like Rose thorns in my flesh
Made me fail in thy holy blood.
And through the open veins I delighted
Like a child in Rosemary’s blossom
I remember thy screams and thy yearning
I still feel the pleasure in thy remorse
When down her eyes we both cursed Her
And thy laugh, rising through the Moon
And I was lost within thy splendor.
Please, I prithee, take me with Thee
Love has deceived me one last time
I do not believe in It anymore.
Never my once beloved, thy mark rises
And those like Thee the other world denies
The gates close in thy visage, give in to hate
For my redemption Thou have lost
And in no way my son Thou art
For the satisfaction of flesh has deceived Thee
And now a virgin cries up high for it.
She deserved her doom by her own ways
I could not desire pain to call upon her
I loved her like blood to the moon
But she was too lost in her own reflection
And within herself, while she cursed,
I faded and fall deeper and faster.
And the need for life grew in a glimpse
And all my body crumbled below her
And the virgin cried, but the blade was in
Deeper by the second, fueled by passion
Deep like myself within her
Giving her a last indulgence from her own ways
And in Death she came.
And Down we/Thou came and fall
But we/Thou could not stop now
And in amber embrace I/Thou saw the blade
And reason went down by the side
And whispered in shrouded voice
I am/ Thou art/ Betrayer.
Empty does the moon seems today
Far away and with nothing to say
Lonely as the morning comes and the day
All so cold and left astray.
Sorrow still, silent in me
All so swift and calm for thee
Have we ever know why we cry?
Have all our hearts gone dry?
Who are you, mistress dark
Tall and serene, just like my mark
Calling me to sleep, oh fragrant bed
There where once I was wed
Have the children gone anew?
Do we still pretend to wait for a few?
In velvet darkness I leave
In a shadow I live.

what a bold photo. such pure beauty and raw fragility. its quite hard to take in, but even harder not to return to.
It’s so rare to stumble upon a blog with such beauty…
It is so intensely beautiful.
Very strong poetry.
