severed chord

[soulfir3]

embarking from the long drawn shadows of dawn
into the cold embrace of winter's night
shrill screams emit,
shaking the listening without mercy
terror drawn eyes , stare into the black
unseen eyes, stare unrelentingly back
tremors of nightmares touch the spine
travel from the very depths of the soul

gentle heard, haunting bells chime
(upon winter's night)

into the night and away from the light
darkness forebodes a stealth like sting
fingers touch body, clammy and cold
blood cursed and curdled under skin
breathe blown against.. blistering hot
silent laughter heard within
another innocence shattered,
darkness claims too win

gentle heard whispers, the unseen found
(shrouded by winter's plight)

dawns own rising , in blood cloaked red
tortured innocent,
found upon blood soaked cloth
eyes wide open, yet nothing too see
screams into nothing, as memories discovered
drifting between where the living are and also not

gentle whispers, of death's own chime
scream loudly dear innocent, for this night
You are mine
( devil's greedy sacrifice )

Oh WOW!

I was truly absorbed by this piece.
A piece of poetic art, without ever saying so, but you and this write, are exquisitely dark and beautiful.

Sincerely,
