Lonely soul tainted with lust within his shell of sorrow
Which came with birth amongst this cruel world
His beauty swirled within ever-changing light
Two goddesses swooping for his affection through eternity
Caressing moon with her pale skin of romance
Brushed against the softened features of him
Spouting a rosebefore his very eyes
Beckoning him away from man created light
Into the coldness, chill of the cool night air of passing dreams.
The wildness that is of him surrounds his very essence
Mother earth once his homeland once more
No need for the feeble minded inventors of new ages
Held within the arms of twisting vine on his bed of soil
At peace falling asleep drinking from the bottle of desire
Wishing to stay with the goddess of night forever more
Goddess of light awaking his hatred once again
“Why oh why he cries do you torment me so
Let me stay within the night’s cold chill
For your heat whips at my skin draining me whole
Till I faintly crawl into your arms of rest”

I liked the other-world feel of this and the re-telling of classical mythology.

Very nice write, my friend.

enjoyed.
