Blood Moon

By scorp

Like a dream she had drifted from the room,

And like a dream she seemed unreal, and like a dream she was gone.

Like a dream the pale rose drips gold and blooms,

And like a dagger plunged into a protesting heart, the cold night breaks into dawn.

Like a dream she smiles at me, looking down,

And like a pair of lifeless eyes watching every move, I touch the edge of the mind,

Like a dream of a tattered gown, a broken crown,

And like a scream rings, like blood stains on the stone by the moonlight shines,

Like a dream, she was only a shell of a girl,

And like a nightmare in the pits, a sliver of death unfurls.
