In a shimmering glow
The dead are awake
Floating about
They quiver and quake
Unearthly figures
Stay hidden inside
Haunting
Their devilish grins
Misguide
Roaming freely
The demons swell
Living inside
The Gates of Hell

You trembled at my feet
A soft murmur clamored
Into a tumultuous din
Left behind, the fallen pieces
Of life, shattered dreams
Lying naked in the street

Lost in the waves of yesterday’s sorrow
Longing to capture the dreams of tomorrow
Escaping the dungeon that kept her at bay
Reaching for life that was taken away
Unlocking the tomb, her spirit awakens
Gathering back all that was taken
Yet she stands alone at the top of the stairs
Still seeking the answers to unanswered prayers

She sleeps among the flowers
Unaware of the presence before her
As he touches her face
She remains in her place
He can only look up and adore her
Fair maidens do not like dragons
They panic and fill with dismay
But he will not give up
To his promise he’ll live up
There is no turning back on today
He’ll wait until she awakens
Touching her face once more
My lady, please hear me
You’ve no reason to fear me
My love is forever yours

Seduction
By the light of the moon
Swept away
In rhythmic sways
Movement flows
From her body, aglow
All in a melodic swoon
Temptation
In blue shadows of night
Electric with emotion
Her sweetest devotion
Hypnotic romance
Swept away in the dance
A vision of pure delight
