Literature Text

The Moon wanes with a cadaverous crescent, bleeding above the seas
Of winter red spruce trees
Beneath the twilight, snow filled under the hemlock
Far aloft the Bedrock
Lies my departed fiancé deceased

But nothing...
Fears, tears, or pleads
Will raise your her lifeless carrion
As her soul is shepherd to another world of uncertainty
As we will now see...

She was an infinite creature
Beautiful, lustlful bleeder
A Queen of Snow far beyond comparison
Her love mightier than the strongest garrison
Served my soul well

Dark liquor eyes, frozen in time
Now glare back at me...

The misery in her
Like the smell of sulphur
Now rank within my bewildered slurs
I shuttered my maddened eyes
Scream at the arctic sky
Profanity curtailed my cries

As I bowed to my knees
Languidly closer I step adjacent to thee
I am astounded by the lesion that bleeds
On her wrist posterior to the vein
She cleaved out her relentless pain
That now crystallized in the frost with disdain

Another acumen to affray for the differences
As my phalanges reached for her pendence
Scribed words declaring our love in suspense
Another premonition to take thy life
No more reasons left to prolong this strife
Tonight will be my last night

Gracefully I watched thyself carve
Would be my death-scar
I could descry her spirit illuminating like a star
As the suffering washed away
Alongside her own today
My eyelids shut, my corpse laid caressing her cold as clay

In my final thoughts
I never forgot
That we loved each other more than not
Now together, forever
In Death we embrace an will never
Unlike life, separate these souls that will never sever
Fictional story of despair and fear.

I just uploaded the final draft. First copy was a rough draft.
