The Initiation
Two beshadowed figures hop a
wrought iron fence,
Landing in the courtyard
of a cathedral immense
A tight embrace and quick kiss
against the metal
A breaking and crunching
as dead leaves unsettle
Dashing across the open
space, the wind in your hair
We stop and your breath's
in my ear like a prayer.
A crowbar and chisel later,
I pry open the gate,
and the inside is perfect,
we were drawn here by fate.
A layer of dust on the floor
betrays the years,
the ages, since anybody's
been here
I pick you up and carry you
past the pews
And lay you on the altar
for me to use and abuse
Half-melted ancient candles
now blaze with light,
As nothing but you and I
fill up the night.
Your tongue in my ear,
the only Word we need,
Your nails draw my blood,
and mix with your screams,
A perfect sacrifice to
our dark desires,
and me inside you, our
profane communion.
You are my sun, and
I your moon; I am no more
than a pale reflection of you.
But together, we are
whole. We are complete,
a cult of two; we need
no one more.

The Excommunication
Two solitary figures sit behind a
decaying iron fence,
Staring at the courtyard
of a cathedral's pretense
And time erased, a deep abyss
of faded metal
A breaking and crunching
as dead memories settle
Thinking across our years
and words on the air
We stop and our death's
on my mind in despair.
A month of silence and a
letter too late,
I knew this was coming,
We were thrown here by fate.
A deceptive facade that
betrays the tears,
the stages since hiatus
once again nears
We pick ourselves up and
carry on with life
And lay sleepless in bed
wallowing strife
Soft-spoken ancient promises
now fade in the light,
As you try to tell yourself it
will all be alright.
Anathema of revenge,
inception of deed,
Your words tear my soul,
and condemn our creed
This time imperfect
and so strange
I remember you, this
song's absolution.
You are my star, and
I your night; I am no more
than our sacrificial rite.
But severed, we are
impure. We are endlessly
searching; for we will
always need more.

I just wanted to say, if you wrote that poetry, you are one talented lady. I found you on here, by seeing one of your patterns, loved by another. It was quite lovely. Anyway, take care and it's nice to meet you. - Jesse (I don't go by Muse, lol)
