There are two ways to spread light; to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it. ~Edith Wharton


As darkness covers the sky
The raven screech with their awful cry.
When the clouds swim through the darkened night
The Moon shines brightly, putting up a fight.

When the black birds fly
You know someone is bound to die.
Grab your loved one and hold them close
Throw the pills away so she can’t overdose.

Feel her heartbeat against your belly
Whisper that the darkness is just silly.
Keep her safe and sound
So Death can’t have her hands bound.

When the silver tears fall
It’ll be your name she’ll call.
Run to her
Run like you’ve never before

Swoop her up
Taker her away from the Hellhound’s pups
Kiss her nose and whispers softly
“I’ll keep you safe my lovely.”

Run to the Ashen Moon
To be obscured by Darkness soon.
Fly away to an ancient sanctuary
Do it fast so it’s not her corpse you’ll carry.

Do this for her love and safety
And it’ll be you she’ll marry.
Don’t let the knife kiss her first
Let Death die of thirst.
