Candelabra snuffed prey - silhouette wedded<br>Nightfall take my hand<br>Seduce me with silky timbred limbs<br>Grant me thy dark command<br>Over the peaks framing tapestries<br>Of thick forest, dusk has filled<br>With lucifugous kisses enwreathed in mist<br>Creeping like violations from the shadows<br>To kill<br><br>Lucretia<br>Is my love in vein<br>When thy tears bleed sweeter<br>Thank the midsummer rain? <br>Bewinged, infested belfries<br>Toll o'er the sobbing throng<br>A writhe of lethargic, terrored nudes<br>Whipped and welted neath the barbed windsong....<br><br>(in saddean paradise<br>Ancestral legacies linger on....)<br><br>I am he<br>The crowned and conquering darkness<br>Satan robed in ecumenical filth<br>Livid bacchus sustained by bridal echelons of sylph<br><br>This wintry eve when the snow glistens deep<br>And sharpened turrets wed the jewelless skies<br>I shrug off the shroud of preternatural sleep<br>Enbroided by these words malaresia scribed....<br><br>'beauty slept and angels wept<br>For her immortal soul<br>In this response, all evil chose<br>To claim her for their very own'<br><br>Carpathia<br>The pleasured dead speak of her<br>In necromantic tongue<br>When ambered daylights are done<br><br>Masterbating in their graves<br>On her zenith to come....<br><br>This catafalque night when awed stars report<br>Their absence from the heavenly brow<br>Crippled seraph shalt cower in illustrious courts<br>Whilsts the cloaked maelstrom resounds throughout<br><br>'how the storm it fulfills<br>My heart though unhealed<br>Celestial knifes ebonied<br>And wild woods thrill<br>Yet far fiercer still<br>Her lustre eviscerates me'<br><br>Carpathia<br>Priapic lovers twist in concert with her<br>Covenants are struck, jagged lightning fellates<br><br>The path towards the castle weary innocence takes<br><br>I rule as master here<br>Where feral hordes impart my temper<br>Love sank wounded when i, betrayed<br>Saw death etch cruelly, upon my lineage<br><br>'usher the spite seething draconist<br>And commit this world to thy ancient<br>Sovereignty'<br><br>Erunescent veil descend<br>Psalmed sunset thus portends<br>And laid to rest, I now am blessed<br>With this darkness.... forever more<br><br>Supreme vampiric evil
