Within those walls..
the dark blood did flow..
seven hundred year ago...
the last of a line was slaughtered ..
by Saxon hordes...
Within those cold walls...
their souls still mourn..
let those who enter be forewarned..

On horse back he rode,
to pick up his love..
two young lovers...from their homes did ride..
against parents law..and their hideous decree
and the only place safe...
was that castle by the sea

She was a beauty.. flame in soft curls
He had the hint of noble decent..
aristocratic face, tempered with brown hair
betwixt the shoulders it went..
To that castle way they stole...
where all other feared go..
for fears of the souls..trapped seven hundred years ago..
So...on with love, and no fear not found..
for haunt they were bound..


Inside they felt an odd touch...
and their hands together they felt flushed..
and lost in the eyes of passion found..
they fell fast in to new devotions..
disrobing with alacrity...they made union unbound
never glimpsing, or caring...
that sacred reunion in their blood was found..

And as each made their climaxes true..
two bound souls , in lonely, forgotten anguish so long,
rode the skins of two young lovers of old Celtic blood
with each hungered touch and gasping breath
ancient and young loves once again felt each others touch..

and to those young lovers, Celtic by descent...
and as it does, at the right time, the sun did rise.
Yet pursuers, or fathers, or rivals of their flame
never endangered, or worried the lovers again.
for older cycles held them true
Ne'er would they be apart again

and seasons passed, as the seasons do
till her flame turned grey, and his did to
yet years of touches had came and passed
and far to soon to the grave he was asked
embracing a man, of noble decent
and on to that earth, true love's tears went
and as the last breath of grey in soft curl was sent
once more two soul joined, with their lives both spent
decades alone, being as one is not easy to relent
no pursuers, or fathers, or rivals of their flame
shall ever bother, or worry, or haunt them again.

and so with two other lovers they will subsist
those ancient souls, whose to their bodies they lent
the four together shall eternity spend
so in those halls four true loves roam
forever welcomed to their haunted home..
