Lilith comes to the men and women fair Demoness or Goddess, must you be aware For her passion stirs the lust, from the raven hair to ruby lips She’ll guide into her enchanted garden, have you bow to her on the throne she sits You’ll drain your blood into her glass Give to her your wine as a vineyard giveth his grapes Consuming you she’ll fill her flask Take your sexuality, upon your soul she’ll traipse Caveat, Caveat, Lilith will drain all of you Make you feel so surreal with need to bleed And when you ask to go, she’ll close her show Leaving you empty, in love, she’ll spare no greed And you’ll see her here and everywhere Nights will never allow your escape For you’ll give her your all Her name you’ll call "Lilith! Lilith! The rest of me please take!" Note* You can read about the inspiration for this piece here. http://www.wels.net//sab/cm/ls-9810.html |

She sounds like one of Ulysses' side trips - She surely fits right into his genre... Only the strongest will shall survive her treachery... Well done, DH... |

Dennis, some of this I believe is real, some I don't....... I don't mean to start a controversy about demons, because the Bible says they are real, but............ I think some things have been written from the fascination of the occult.......which is also very real.... But, a person has to pray to God (the REAL God, and Jesus Christ, His Son) to figure out what is real and what isn't. My brother, in his younger years, got involved in the occult. He later became an ordained minister in one of the larger denominations. He is no longer a minister, because his wife decided after 30 something years that she wanted a divorce. He still has strong beliefs, though. Sorry, Dennis, but after I read your link, I started thinking about my brother, who is up North where I don't see him very often.... You wrote this poem very well, as you do all your work... Thank you... "Love makes the world go around" |

Thank you all for your comments. And garysgirl, I am in complete agreement with what you said. I wrote this as part of a dark poetry contest, which I don't write much dark stuff. Came across this link on the Wels.Net and was the first I heard of Lilith. Thank you again! |
