Ebon Heart Waltz
Copyright 2001
Written by James Edward Shields


Rip these nails
Right through you
Carve a new image
Canvas to dine
And soul will feed
This tightened grip
Show how I love you
Open thorned gates
Step inside!

Parting red my flu
Step inside you
Fill that which you lack
And feed my soul....

Nails up inside
Around blackened heart
I can taste it
Taste you
I’ll consume you
To death I will love...

Burn with you
With me
Seduced in this sea
To death I will love you

Make you hunger
Torture you with it
Driving you mad
Till I come for you
Satisfy your tongue
Devour your soul
To death I will love you

Pull you close
And to death I will love you

hmmmm....not sure exactly how ro respond to this piece. There is a lot of power in each stanza. This is so very dark. The love in this piece sounds more threatening then anything. You accomplished it very well.
