1.
It would seem as though I have wandered into an unfamiliar wood with naught a compass Unfamiliar flora glare at me with esoteric expression An unnerving sort of air pervades these acres I fear I am lost among that which I do not know The notion of losing myself in this forest is wildly intoxicating
2.
No Home 00:43
A corpse with no home to return to Hop away, you long nailed monster To where? Anywhere This is surely not where you belong Vile creature, you stole my life force once before I have no more to give to you Perhaps, one day, I will be as you are A spirit with no place to lay its head A fool in life, a fool in death Black dog's blood My name nailed to your forehead Hadies will know who sent you Begone!
3.
The Gultch 02:24
Hush child, they'll never find you here Hush child, they are not your friends I will keep you safe Carry you down into the gulch Muskets fire and cannons thunder The leaves in the trees weep quietly Sleep in peace for now If they come, I will kill them all I will not let them harm you I swear upon my father's fathers
4.
I should have never left the bed The sun is unkind The moon hides Behind the clouds Conceal the stars Remove the sky Discard the Earth These roads Offer No end To my Suffering Every Morning A plague I see no light at the end of the tunnel Only an inking black ahead of me Hide beneath the covers My dreams will surely hunt me down
5.
Eros Agape Philia Our union Consummate We lie, entwined, within the forest navel Our cover is but the light of the universe One; we are Companions Mates Lovers Held tight within my arms Claws digging Instinct surging I long to protect you from myself I am restless Whispers from your heart Beckon my soul rest Our bodies Our spirits In union You, I chose As you are I, you chose As I am Ecstasy Bliss Beneath the moon Joy Adoration Our bond unbreakable This dream of divinity Beauty and beast Love Pure and unconditional Hand in hand 'Till we return to dust Soaring unto the cosmos
6.
The words of the poets and prophets meant naught to this lonely soul I understood not what could be good in this life of suffering The meaning of existence was but void and null Until a ray of holy light shed itself upon these acres of sorrow A life droning of loneliness Empty and blind to a hope of happiness Lost among this world of decay and faded dreams Now I see the path ahead If only it leads me to that meadow I seek A glade of comfort A moment in your arms This creature would finally understand The force that drives this wretched sphere I wander into this blinding mist willingly I have found what it is that means anything A word that breathed life into the dead Love
7.
Incubus 00:52
Lay on me This solitary bed enshrouded Shadow swallows my solitude But you The thing to take my mind Every sinew and motion Crushing viscera A feral sense of pleasure You will be the one to drive a silver dagger through my heart
8.
A flower tenderly caressed in my hands Your name in my heart as my eyes labor in waking My wandering thoughts end at such sweet waters Carry me from this place A stream I laze and float upon Buoyant existence We created a storm together A precious downpour A blue wash of rain obscures our forms Not an onlooker to pass judgement Wash the land and quench the parched Let us, hand in hand, be swept away by our tempest
9.
i am coming home by moon and stars to see your face i am coming home, my love through death's dark veil to comfort you passed beyond your arm's embrace yet never too far to gaze upon you feel me in the wind hear my soul in the howling wolves see my smile in the flying raven I am always in your heart by winter's frost we will meet again to dance among our kin as the days of our youth
10.
A pair of pale and lovely eyes You complicate me A thief you are to steal my thoughts Break into my temple Occupy my heart I let you do this to me Stealing me away from my shelter in the Aether Reminding me that I am human after all I will allow you nullify my existence so sweetly Discarding my defenses, opening the gates You will truly be the one to drive a silver dagger through my heart And I will welcome such a Heavenly Dream
11.
I see horror and beauty You are the mirror set before me Both blinding and illuminating Reality's edge to cut the mind's eye
12.
The caressing currents across my fur and feathers As dark dreams of sorrow dissipate Slowly awakening I feel the sand that was my bed Running through my claws Fading into the dark Eyes beginning to open and cut the darkness Upright I bring myself To face the prospect of the surface A leap into the liquid sky To claw and beat my wings Farther away from my rest Threads of white dangle as frayed cloth Come into the light Obsidian dissolves Into the azure Climbing higher to break the canopy As in birth, to greet this world Shattering of the glass coffin Breathing in the free air To behold the beautiful world The sun bids me welcome again Awakening to chase the wind and embrace the sky once more
13.
It is no secret My affections If only you could see How you make my heart to sing My belly flutters on butterfly wings Please join my feet in dancing Hold my hands Place my palm upon your heart I can not stomach this separation An unbreakable wall between us Light barrier casts a shadow upon me
14.
The open fields of snow and brush Please welcome this soul who longs for solace Freedom, you call to me Alas! I am chained to the ground Split and devoured by two desires Companionship and autonomy Set me free! The crisp clean air speaks my name I hear you, yet I am stone I beg of thee, let this raven fly To snow and peak!
15.
Treading with feet uncovered The ground I walk is sacred Ancient silence of the wilderness The mountain forest is my cathedral I am in solitude Overarching A wondrous place Carpet of moss and stone Breath of the ancients Telling stories forgotten Of time antiquated Freedom abandoned by my kin Speak to me oh Mother Earth Father Time, teach me your secrets Ethereal esoteric place A glade of paradise
16.
There is no fault in your eyes Your presence, a winter chill Stirring want of a make believe warmth Thorns of a rose that once grew in my heart Burned away to preserve affections Yet creeping still along pallid walls I must be on my way to newer lands Leave this garden of my youth It harbors only briars and bitter fruits Guised as flowers and canopies to shade a weary soul A lonely creature constructing sweet nothing Left hollow and bruised by his own construct You were never mine to hold
17.
Trees long barren of their lives Pallid hands to claw the blackened sky Winds murmur the confessions and regrets of souls forgotten Cold soil upholding only shadows Bare no favor towards the extant or extinct Holding within its bosom the bones of many who lost their way It is certain that I will soon join the ranks of the dead And become a harmony among these haunted forest melodies To have lost my way in these woods was to bury myself I have never felt so alive

Love has many faces and I have become a harmony in its haunted forest melodies.
