Bitterness

Coming Winter bites
and I recall your kiss;

A searing chill
envelopes memory;

With Winter comes your grasp
tighter still, gripping;

As much as I resist,
Still I call to you.

When the Night Winds Wail


Through the darkest nights
and beyond the brightest days,
there is one constant light
shining oh so far away;

It calls me as I sleep,
it moans across my soul,
it lingers buried deep,
my Love its only goal;

No matter where I turn
I feel your icy breath,
a searing frozen burn
seducing me to death;

The light within your eyes
I never can forsake,
No matter what your lies
my heart is yours to take;

The distant dance of Time
teases our embrace,
like a window sublime
with a wafting veil of lace;

Gazing from my dreams
through that eternal glass,
your drifting Shadow seems
just beyond my grasp;

Forever I am doomed,
nowhere is escape,
each horizon looms,
a darkly crushing weight.
