Graveyard Coffeehouse

Woman In Black

---

I taste her
On faded rhymes
Echos of yesterday
Words that sparkle
And fade
Descending
Into an abyss
Of silence
I have seen
Her beautiful face
Hidden
Within a dream
One thousand shades
Of gray
Before the Nightmare
Goodbye
And
Morning light
Our lips
Have yet to meet
In the real
Our bodies
Await
A paradise
Of the flesh
Heart
Mind
Spirit
But our love
Is alive
Though
I have died
Arising
In the Night
Searching
For this
Woman in black
Illuminated
By the moon
Poetry
Shining
As a beacon
To bring her home
At last
Into
My loving arms
For I have
Made love to her
In the darkness
Of sleep
All my life
Held her close
In a premonition
Of ecstasy
I can hear her
Whispering
On the wind
Within
Songs of seduction
Despair
Madness
Dancing
The twisted path
To me
As I do
To her
One infernal day
At a time
Destiny
Has decried
She is mine
We will meet
On a mountain
Beyond
A Dark Forest
There
Eternal happiness
Lives
And
She
Will be mine
Taking my hand
Beyond
The veil of sleep
And
Sweet visions
Haunting
Awaiting
Me
In
Poetry
And
Shadows.
