Text Twilight Verses

Recommended Posts

Darkness and light meet in a waltz of the damned,

locked in a embrace that eternal, and all the things that you think that you know...

lies, lies, lies, told to keep off balance, off guard and

out of you mind.

But now see the rising moon,

know the secrets that it reveals to you.

For just around lies you escape,

from madness, from sadness,

into the moon glow,

we escape, fly away, to freedom.

Lost amid darkness, hidden away,

where we can finally be free,

walk among the living again and be

for just one night

almost, almost normal,

peacefully living at last outside this cold repast.

these walls are closing in,

I feel the end is near,

unless we do something,

my dear.

Hear me, fear me,

you among the sunlight,

for we are the creatures of the night and we are not afraid to

bite.

Livin' in a strange place,

lost in the race,

drifting in a time all

it's own.

Ghosts run, werewolves howl,

zombies moan.

Tombstones, catacombs,

shapeshifters who need a comb,

walkin' down the street.

It's strange, it's weird,

it's enough to curl your beard,

but it's the place that we call

HOME.

I'm Mr. Red Christmas,

time for a change.

A time for a rebirth,

time for a change.

Red colors the snow,

wintery winds blow,

time for the red snow,

I'm Mr. Freeze.

I'm Mr. Red Christmas,

I'm Mr. Cold,

hiding inside your homes,

your breathe you hold.

Soon I'll creep in,

silent as can be.

then the REAL fun begins,

just you wait and see.

I'm Mr. Red Christmas, I'm Mr. Death.

Friends call me Snow Misery,

'Cause wherever I go,

humans drop like snowflakes at

my touch.

When wint'ry winds blow,

don't worry my dear,

I'll hold you close, so..

Even through the darkest times,

our love will show the way,

I'm not afraid of whatever lays

beyond the break of day.

Freeze, snow, icy cold,

close by my side, you shall I hold.

Don't blink, take a breath, leave out the rest,

forget your hesitation, forget your woe,

just let our love....

make you glow.

Angels in flight?

Yeah right: Shotguns aimed at us all.

Don't give me this crap, that same ol' rap,

that every Cinderella ends up at the ball.

Don't start a war, a needless uproar,

unless you know what your fighting for,

after all.

Knights march into the fight,

facing off in the endless night,

not even knowing what they fight for

anymore.

Angels toting shotguns, cherubs aiming grenades,

everything's changed, nothing stays the same.

Angels in flight?

 

 

Yeah right... aiming shotguns at us all.

I've never know loss, I've know pain,

I've known the way a heart's breaking can gain

power of the soul, the mind, the body,

lost in dark memories purgatory.

Decembers are lonely, April's sad,

October's silent, but January's glad.

The chain, the unbreakable chain, of memories that binds us, ties us,

entwines us all,

lost, broken, shattered,

like a light snowfall.

A distant voice, a careless laugh, a special person,

lost after the last

chain is broken, shattered, decayed,

the intire soul unfrayed.

Dancing across, gliding softly,

memories go, they meet, they depart,

it's all very melancholy.

Who am I?

Who are you?

Can the memories of what was,

tell me this, tell me this, tell me this,

do...

Once upon a time, before this darkness fell,

our love was sweet, a December's wintery spell.

Like Poe's sainted Raven, I cry

" Nevermore"

as ghosts of past love,

hover over the floor.

" Never, never, nevermore'"

It is said, as the earth snuggles under her snowy bed.

" Nevermore, nevermore",

my memories do so cry,

you shattered your own love,

you made her cry with your wandering eye,

don't mope, don't sigh...

you made her leave with your wandering eye.

Don't cry for me: I've damned myself...

lost to the dark chain of memories....

What are you looking for, traveler?

Wealth, fame, death? A revolt, a revolution... a war?

Nothing where you've come from,

Nothing where you're going.

Take my advice, make like a river, and keep on flowing.

This town is cursed, you see,

ever since 1953.

Say what? You don't know? You really don't know?

Of the house of lost souls?

The manor on the hill...

it's not what it seems: folks go there for sleep,

expecting sweet dreams.

All night, we hear their SCREAMS.

Cries in the night, cries of fear, death, dark delight,

as the THINGS in the house carry them off.

The bride is there,with raven black hair,

posed, ready to kill on first glance.

Take my advice, friend: don't stop intill you reach the

end of this road.

Don't believe, you say, I'm crazy, you say?

Maybe... but you'd be crazy to stay.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

 

A Warning To Travelers

Darkness abroad...

whistling through the trees....

Like something's brewing...

about to begin.

Troubles coming,

from where, I can not say.

I'm sure it will be here,

by break of day.

Alone, and unsure,

I've been searching for the cure,

For the pain and sorrow,

you left behind.

To somehow borrow,

simple release from this,

Is all I ask, All I ask,

yet... it's too much.

The pain, the lies,

the tears and the sighs,

the heart you took and

 tore in two.

You were cruel, you were harsh,

no more class than a marsh,

but I guess I only have myself to blame.

The lies, the fights,

the damp summer nights,

spent fooling myself into saying

" I love you."

"I love you."

"I love you."

" I love you." 's said untruthfully,

as my soul, my being, longed to  be free,

from the clutch you put on my heart.

Now that your gone, all I can do,

Is lay here, sleepless, missing you,

and pray the dawn chases away this

shattered soul of mine.

In your memories, hidden deep, locked away,

your past is cleverly on display.

Lies said, " I loves you" s uttered,

all untruths, darkness, deceit.

There comes a time, when the darkness divides,

and all those secret demons locked away come out

to play.

Shattered memories, yes, shattered memories...

but who was the one who broke them?

Not fate, not your lover, not me...

You, you, only you:

your lies, your lies...

They've come back on you.

Blinded by pain, lost in a drift,

reality shifts...

is this your home anymore?

Or just another....

Shattered dream?

A Far off memory?

A landscape of broken hopes?

No... this is the realm of darkness,

and your presence?

Heh, only YOU are to blame.

Of all these pieces,

lost, broken,

of dreams unspoken...

can a life be mended from them,

once again?

On and on, life goes on,

loves lost amid the darkness,

still remembered, still searched for...

In the dark, alone, I've been searching endlessly,

for that love your left within me, that tender legacy,

When you were gone,

I didn't think I could go on,

But I did, I did, I did...

Leaving you behind, but never letting go,

traces of love an unworthy foe for my

bleeding heart.

Sharing pain, ,misery, despair,

I soon realized you were there:

my memories preserved, even if it

wasn't deserved,

your tender love you had

for me.

Even though your gone,

I know you can see me,

feel me,

hear me....

and we will, o we will,

end up happily,

a fairy tale ending no,

but happy, even though,

you died...

o so long ago...

 

Refusing To Let Go,

Refusing To Forget.

Don't think about it, Just don't think about.

No matter what your heart says,

it's wrong, wrong, wrong.

no matter what think your fighting for,

it's wrong, wrong, wrong,

This love, this embrace,

this chilly expressionless face,

is this what your fighting for,

fighting this insane war?

Love isn't worth this,

Bloodshed isn't worth this,

No matter what your heart says....

It's wrong, wrong, wrong....

 

 Bloodshed... Wrong.

 

They say before you start a war, you better know what your fighting for...

Somewhere down this road, Memories are waiting,

lost chains of thought forgotten so....

Are they good or bad,

are they happy or sad,

do they reflect your inner soul?

Are they black and white,

pulsing through the night,

or do they glow a darker shade?

Is what you forgot,

truly your lot?

Are your memories merely lies?

Can you say for sure,

is this really the cure?

Is what you remember...

a lie?

Is this what you want,

finding your lost train of

thought?

What lays along this sacred road?

Memories unlocked,

chains unbroken,

fears unspoken, now set free.

Can you say for sure,

is this the cure,

is this what your searching for?

Memories lost for a reason,

found again during this dark season,

unlocking the pain inside.

Why do you suppose,

these dreams were left

to repose, to slumber,

lost among your cares and woes?

Finding them is wrong,

listen to your hearts true song,

know this: it will not end well.

Hear these words I say,

listen to me I pray,

do not take this path,

go home.

Somewhere down this road,

dark memories await you,

do you want to be undone?

Is this your choice, do you choose to ignore the voice

of reason?

During this, this, this,

dark season....

This love...

forged in winter fire....

Dark embers...

evil desire...

burning fire...

December desire....

Passion, like the flame,

kiss, and consume all.

Firey desire,

December passion,

Hell's dark fire...

has sealed our love's fate.

Dark desire, winter hell fire...

can you feel the heat touch

your heart?

Demon desire,

December fire...

can you feel the fire...

caress your soul?

My heart burns,

hell fire burns,

our love burns...

dark desire,

December hellfire...

My heart burns there too.

Flames... dancing flames... dancing, dancing, dancing...

Hell fire... it burns...

it burns...

burning desire, ravaging hellfire,

it's not my fault,

I'm not to blame,

it's someone else awful game.

Hellfire... hellfire...

Dark, painful, burning desire.

October flames, burn, burn, burn....

Be mine, mine, mine...

Don't let me burn in this dark hellfire,

satanic desire, October flames...

winter shame....

Hellfire, dark fire...

 

It consumes me, this desire:

I'm aflame for you.

You touch my skin, and you blacken,

but you smile; the hellfire consumes us both.

Dark desire, October flames...

Secret, terrible, hidden shame..

the dark fire, as it kisses the soul,

consumes.

Dark fire, hellfire...

ashes to ashes,

and dust to dust.

Years have passed, screams don't last,

revenge is sweet...

and it's time has come to pass.

In the dark of the night,

hours before dawn,

things unseen,

something that screams,

a headless creature,

a monster without features,

will fly through the dark,

as my revenge embarks.

Fly my minions,

obey me now,

fly fast, fly sure,

make sure there's no cure

for this curse I unleash,

has no end.

Dosvendanya,

this is the end:

Say goodbye,

it's the end of the line.

Here's a sign,

a terrible fate,

it's waiting for you...

a terrible fate.

Nosvendanya,

it's the end;

in the hours before dawn...

it's the end.

Alone, and unsure,

I was searching through the night,

hoping to rediscover what

started this spark .

To live, to laugh,

to see you once again,

letting my memories,

run free again.

our paths, our lives,

crossed by chance, intertwined,

a love born of chance...

a desire unrelant.

a dark, empty time,

my life was lost, unbound...

your presence was missing,

your love for me unfound.

To live, by gathering,

my shattered souls' fragments...

memories are all I have...

so distant...

Love long gone,

Sins undone.

These things I long to forget.

And despair, dark and sweet,

rushes upon me again.

Someone told me, long ago,

Love was sacred, not to be let go.

Strange, as years pass me by..

I know this is a lie.

Love can taint, love can stale,

love can be a misery,

as lies, untruths, deception,

pile up painfully.

Decembers is so cold,

January makes me feel old,

cursed June, month of love...

damnation from above.

Far away, lost once more,

dim as a garnet,

forgotten pain,

tarnished love,

misery surfacing, I abhore.

Someone told me, long ago,

Love is sacred, don't let go.

As the years pass me by...

I know now this is a lie.

 

Love..... Tainted.

In the winters chill of December,

as snow fell down like soft feathers,

dancing there, you touched my heart,

as others fought to keep us apart.

Things I almost remember enough to touch,

hidden in my hearts tight clutch.

Never forget, never forgive,

a love so gentle, by death was riven.

As delicate as a flower,

as sensitive as one too:

you withered in December's icy grasp.

The snow falls again, the embers dimly glow,

the snow falls again...

as I remember you.

You laugh, your smile,

how you ALWAYS took a while,

to get wherever you were going.

your bravery you were never shy

of showing.

December's grasp, the snows soft repast...

December cursed memories, of the distant,

glowing,

beloved,

past.

Long ago, so long ago,

Melanie was dressed in white.

A dainty bride, a beautiful bride....

one the Phantom coveted at first sight.

Quick as lighting, her beloved was killed,

hung from the rafters of the manor Raven...

Dead, but not dead...

Life beyond death...

The phantom took over,

inch by inch,

The manor becoming a ghastly place.

Melanie knew, her love so true,

was hidden from her, someplace.

Searching the hallowed halls,

dressed in white for her bridal ball,

she soon joined the dead in decay.

The Phantom doomed,

Melanie entombed,

The manor looms...

it's her wedding day,

after all.

White Christmas, red Christmas....

who gives a damn?

Christmas tree, stocking by the chimney...

who gives a damn?

What you see is a broken man,

a shadow of myself.

Presents wrapped gaily,

misleto hung high,

who gives a damn?

Love's left me, love's deserted me,

here beneath the Christmas tree...

white Christmas, red Christmas...

black Christmas....

I don't know.....

Red roses to hold the darkness at bay, 

red roses to hold a love scorned heart. 

Red roses to keep harm away, 

red rose failed to save beauty's ravaged heart. 

 

Eternal sleep, peacefully, 

dreaming eternally, 

dreaming sweetly of the day the prince, 

with lips of clover and mint, 

rides into the castles bomes, 

awakens her with kiss that tells tomes, 

of a love so pure and true. 

 

The clouds cover the moon, 

the roses are in bloom...

death has entomed, 

dear Briar Rose away. 

No prince, no kiss, 

no fullfilled wish: 

true loved failed, 

after all. 

Those clover lips, the smell of rose hips, the caresses so tended on spun gold hair, 

wed joyfully, bride now the lady fair...

disolved like a nightmare in the air.

 

Skin tightens, hands curl, 

eyes whiten, lips unfurl.

 

Eternal rest no mortal doth seek, 

hidden beneath ivory towers peak,

where dreams and fancies sink, 

where wild animals drink...

 

As the princess, our love, our lady fair, 

Briar Rose of the golden hair

Once the kingdoms most fair, 

beloved by even the suns own soft air...

 

Dreams away, eternal slumber, 

life entomed, a magical blunder. 

An exit spell, for kiss's loss, 

never thought of, 

the princess lost....

 

To the cold dark hands of Death. 

 

Briar Rose
