Deception belongs to blackest heart, cringer of shadows duped, trickery gone unknown
Swiftly and sure, rushes crown's son to maiden's bed, vengeance sought for love and throne
In windows of repose, grandeur seen in tomorrow's dreams, followed day a country's queen
In afterwards of dawn, love and to cherish vows be said, bequeathing to forever deemed
Dagger so surely, plunging deep into her breast, ascends the released spirit of life
Mocking laughter, blackest heart sashays into the room, before you lays future wife
Tremors of hatred, son retrieves dagger to hand, ashen pale crosses evil’s face
Mercy was without, died blackest heart, pillar of fire was her final place
Fairest maiden heart, within her kingdom's realm, hidden from dreams she sleeps
Rose's blossom fades, into dust she slowly crumbles, in remembrance son still weeps
Inside snowy palace, castle of polished marble, fashioned by his loving hands
Silken fabric lined, laces shroud the maiden's keep, forever she rests in eternal lands

Chalices of Gold
Emerald kingdom’s gallant knights, honors wrought, graven to pure chalices of gold
Burnished wings of dragons slain, conquests severed, esteemed are champions of old
Embossed are names of hero's lost, asleep eternal, remember all the bravest of heart
Centuries stalked by roaming beast, challenged not, fearful were men from the start
Nightly flights from terror’s dens, beasts of fire, ravaged with frenzy all harvest and stock
Summoned by kingdom’s throne, intrepid kneeled, vengeance sworn with crow of cock
Restless night of sleep unfolds, duties sworn, marauders reign to meet final end
Morning sees maidens weep, heart's in love, silken kerchiefs adorning all valiant men
Prayers to God of man, all heads bowing low, new strength sought for realm to defend
Horses await with nostrils flared, dawn approaching, trumpets erupt calling silence to end
Sacredly blessed cross and sword, violence and death, riding swiftly toward serpents lair
Armored images depicted as told, mangled heaping, deathly rewards for all who dared
Forest ending beside stilled water's edge, refreshing cool, serenity found in comfort of shade
Stealthy eyes keep close at watch, sentries posted, solitude here is the grand lizards glade
Shouting relays hell comes swooping, exhaling flames, heated stench of inner bowels so vile
Cowards unknown with all swords drawn, accountings reveal, engaging testaments and trial
River flowing far to castle's moat, surging crimson, triumphs in blood as the battle raged
Neighing steeds rear high then fall, gashing teeth, thirteen dragons roar fearlessly engaged
Shields stacked one hundred high, equaled in squires, attending servants fell with grace
Flesh now mingles together with scales, unknown victory, spirits vanished without a trace
Emerald kingdoms gallant knights, honors wrought, graven to pure chalices of gold
Burnished wings of dragons slain, conquests severed, esteemed are champions of old
Embossed are names of hero's lost, asleep eternal, remember all the bravest who part
Maidens weep loss of love, chalices filled, death’s venomous brews sipped with loving heart

Suicides' Final CallDamned before death’s final call,
blood soon splatters upon the wall
Constant urge from depression’s hell,
shackles me screaming in its cell
Nightly slumber goes unknown;
chanting demons always drone
Cast out angel prompting loud;
curse Gods' name as you're bowed
Unheard prayers to the wind;
trembled mumbles find no end
I fall before the eternal gate;
no one spares me from my fate
Horrors masked in haunting grays;
darkness clings with follow of days
Not one cares when burden dies;
concerns offered are tainted lies
Mocking heaped beside my fears;
mourners grieve smirking tears
Embracing thundered flash of light;
sleep will come upon this night
Find your peace inside the grave;
endured madness will cease to rave
Heed the words of repeated swell;
drop the hammer on chambered shell
Foolish man you have no God;
turning His back without a nod
Falling tears have been in vain;
tomorrow finds you released of pain
All my pleas went yon past kin,
yet I will bear all they sin
Born for torture within my mind,
this is the only peace I find
Ill scapes played morning till night
alone in a world of mental blight
I’ll weep no more from weary eyes,
my path to hell ends mortal sighs
Release follows in moments sweep;
arrive to comfort of lasting sleep
Clasp in hand, blue steel that's cold;
raising self deliverance that I hold
Constant urge from depressions hell,
shackles me screaming in its cell
Damned before death’s final call,
blood soon splatters upon the wall
