Where are you now my love?
My sweet one
Where have you gone oh my love?
I’m so alone

I only think of you
And it drives me down
I only dream of you

Come here
My lover
I’ll keep you
I will change you
Come here
My slave
You will live
Forever
Screaming
Crying
My lover
With you
I’m gone
At last

I’ll come to you, take my hand
Hold me again, please take my hand

Who are you?
What were you?
My beauty
I can’t tell
How I feel
How I felt
You have paid
For your
Unkindness
With You
I’m done
At last

Please hold me now my love
Where are you now?, oh my sweet love

The Lures of destruction

Stiffen their engaging grasp

In the Webs of Water Lilies and Blood

Mortal Coils

Eyes of fire

Devotion the most infinite Trap

Lady of the Snow

Webbing her tears of Ice

Heart obscures all hope

Lady of the Waters

Vespers

The expiring map

Lies the head of the wanderer

And his heart,

A cloud

Passing all that is solid

Passing all that is Clear

Come Hither My lost Child

Come to see all that had passed

______________________

With your wary little limbs

And your heavy stride so Lithe

_____________________

Will you Heed all that is not encountered?

Heed the passings which haunt?

_________________________

Come into my haunted garden

Come tread this ghastly path

____________________

Your eyes so lost and distant

Your mouth so firm and drawn

___________________

Devotion is ever dreaming

Awake, this the dead end breath

The fires that had burned inside you

The Wind which carried your here

Respect, this the tree of delusion
