A Shadow Verse for Lovers Dark in Arts

by Your Dark and Secret Lover

This new attraction forming Coventry
Where man and woman practice deviltry
Or maybe lesser evils by degree
And still they follow faithful by decree.
This understanding humankind and pleasure
And least we die becomes our only failure,
Hell brings the fire that only can inspire
To melt your heaven-heart with dark desire;
The lips are pressing double that infernal
The soul becomes a flame that burns eternal,
And man will come to know your flame a relic
Beyond the pentagram his knowledge cryptic.
Somewhere, a legion-low with mid-night counsel
His musing exercising mind and pencil,
A shadow verse for lovers dark in arts
Can swiftly tear a virgin's heart apart-
When carelessly provoking something old-
Politely push aside the story told.
Your fancy blind with misconception blot
Mythology's a heartbeat dying not;
A living flame that whispers to your soul
And on the waves of Hell your soul will roll,
Delightful times when ignorance is bliss
And Hell, oh Hell, enjoys your folly kiss.
