DeAtH'z MiStReSs

A hut in the middle of thousand skies

Mirrored in the depth of my sorrow it lies

Left to sleep inside that hut alone

My soul stayed without its home

The thunder we prayed so hard to leave

Our skylight of beauty we had to retrieve-

A hope once lost, the joy not found,

And simply I did wander around-

As an empty shell, no heart, no mind

Would ever exist with no soul to find

So profound was my sorrow’s call

But my voice itself it did stall

My existence lost never to be found again

One moment joy and the next – pain

Divinity now regarded insane

I was playing death’s cruel game.

He laughed his monstrous laugh

But no fear could control me more

I was nothing but would be his

And I would do his one wish-

He gave me two choices, But one displeased me the most-

I could choose to be a hungry ghost

Move from world to world, skies to seas,

An existence that I could never leave

The other was to do the death’s wish

To be his mistress, to be his,

But not as the mistress the poor humans think

A mistress so different from death alone,

Why should you choose me so, I moan

Why can’t you give my soul a home?

He looked at me; to him I was a naked prey
He, the fiercest wolf among wolves led astray-

I do not know why you should be so

Such is your destiny, you do not know.

I listen to my inner voice I could find

As my body had been left behind.

I took my last look at my fate

I nodded, I felt him seal my fate,

But I was safe from his cruel clutches alone

And to skyward did we both bound.

A tiny regret I did leave behind

For other poor, unfortunate souls to find.
