Her hair as black as a raven

her eyes as deep as the sea

with a love that the winged seraphs of heaven

coveted and bled for.

We swore an oath of blood and soil

that we will never part again

as I kissed her face as pale as death

she withered like a rose.

Nightleaves - thorns carved my chest

Nightleaves - take my breath away

I wander the path of eternal darkness

a trace to find behind your closed eyes

I drown within the beauty of your sorrow

as the moon comes out of a cloud by night.

Last night I awoke from a dream

by the song of the nightingale

I stared into the dark

but it was no one there.
