Soft glow of candles illuminating my sacred fears

Tortured screams play out like a symphony

This is my paradise, let me whisper them into your ear

*

Sacred fears eternally are mine

They are a haunting aria that echoes where love basked

They are the sirened soprano where lovers chimed.

*

I run through the halls of old passions

tearing down the curtains of rage

The fears touch me deeply in timed fashion

*

I stare out the windows framing the darkest dawn

As I halt to peer across endless death

That are begging their burdens to be gone

*

Come to me my sacred fear, you're the only friend I've known

Make love to me in the shadows of old heartache

To where shall our rolling souls roam?

*

Encore after encore I perform midnight misery

Winds of happiness taunting me into confusion

Swirling forbidden memories around me

*

To tell the secret of my sacred fears is blasphemous

As they are the blood surging through my veins

Life source of the truly dead, and the only pleasure I trust. 11-07-99 Dawn
