The Masque of Cupid and Death

Lie fierce and wondrous eyes
fearful
Alone, and forgiven of might
have
been

Masquerade

Behind the mask of the belle of the ball
Emboldened in her second skin
Lie fearful fierce and wondrous eyes
Alone, but forgiving of might have been
Her heart moved yet
And carried on
Dancing out her destiny
While might became what could have been
And what it soon will be

Howl

Howl
Remain
Still Vigilant
Prey
Not upon defeat
Prowl
Obtain
Her heart enchant
Stay
Hot and seeking heat

Until Morning Comes

Your eyes once beheld the best of me
You hid within my arms of rest
Your heart once beat as joyfully
As any could attest
But soon came the phantoms and eternal night
Our lips unlocked to catch a breath
Our souls sought for the secret truth
That forges lover's death

We Are Here Together

You held me in the arms of love
You helped me find my self
Created with me, hearts of gold
And dreamed of growing old
Together two, from first to last
And even yet apart
This promise we have made is true:
 I am here for you

The Last Word

The last word spoken in the room
Fell upon no mortal ear
Ethereal, untied from tongue
A sound of love and fear.
