Poems
BANSIDHE
Out of the twilight comes a scream,
The bansidhe wails her pain to me,
Tortured with loss,burdened by memory,
She cries in hate,love blackened and torn,
I feel her anger in my mind,crushing me,
Loathing existance,she needs only to kill,
Restless soul,chained by her hatred,
She wails at gods uncaring,mortals oblivious,
Across the moor does she speed,searching,
For one does her heart ache,soul shriven,
He can not be found,she must abide,
Barred from the undying land by sins,
Sweet tuatha,left by her kin to mourn,
Lonely sidhe,bereft of love,lost her grace,
Forsaken is the bansidhe,alone in the dream,
I can hear her screams,feel her sorrow,
Yet,I can not comfort her.
GODDESS
Unbidden,she enters my nightmares,
Demon in disguise,she calls to me,
Overcome with fear,I lose control of myself,
My body moves towards her as my soul screams,
Drawn to her power,I have no defence,
Mind flown in terror,momentary lapse of reason,
She laughs at my despair,cruel goddess,
I open my mouth to vent my rage,
Naught but a whisper can I muster,
Her touch upon my flesh burns my soul,
Consumed by her lust,free will crushed,
I await oblivion,final moment in twilight,
Happiness is found in destruction,
Demons do I fear no longer,
Darkness envelopes my being,
Coddling like a mother.
SHRIVEN
From some dark void a soul shrieks in pain,
Consumed by a vast loneliness,a heart breaks,
Surrounded by legions of hate,a dream dies,
Chased by disciples of pain,a love despairs,
I can see those around me,yet I hear nothing,
Lost in the twilight,condemned to a nether world,
My only companions are the voices in the night,
Demons to haunt me until my essence is suffocated,
I stand in a street,regret behind,remorse ahead,
Walking ever deeper into the dark,I am alone,
Bereft of purpose,devoid of love,I am shriven,
As I search for a crossroads
SIDHELEIN
Her voice calls out to me,
Soothing the pain of loneliness,
My soul rejoices as she draws near,
Fey princess,mistress of my twilight,
I feel the heat of her power surround me,
Unbridled lust threatening to consume,
She whispers to me,her wish is my life,
I am hers to command,a willing thrall,
To know her love is to be complete,
Goddess,I am but a humble servant,
Merely one more fool amongst the flock,
I can smell her now,jasmine in bloom,
Soul aching for her touch,I tremble,
She comes into view,ringed with green light,
Eyes burning my soul,she beckons me,
All control have I lost,given freely,
I await my goddess,
My sidhelein.
MORRIGAN
In this twilight I hear her approach,
Hooves pound the earth,eyes of green flame,
Her chariot adorned with skulls,her lovers,
She pulls reins before me,spear at my breast,
I tremble with fear,await her bidding,
A pawn once more,to spread her hate,
Cruel mistress,when will I know peace?
War is her nectar,grief her delight,
Death,the ultimate goal,to be by her side,
I am tainted,she rages at my conscience,
A fool lost in the twilight,I am weakened,
The hate is gone,leaving only a void,
Bloodlust no longer guiding my hand,
Broken,uncaring,I await her judgement,
She laughs,with a scream she is gone,
To find another worthy of her despair,
The Morrigan,my Queen,
I am lost to you.
