Camilla

My darling, sweet Camilla,
behest unto thee thine eyes
Lay your head upon my bosom
As the body slowly dies

You came unto me out of nowhere
It seems as though if by fate
A fallen angel sent from above
Denied the pearly gates

“Lie still my darling
And try not to breath
It will soon all be over
Then you’ll be free
Give into the darkness
And look into the light
Just speak my name
Forever, wander night…”

It’s been 13 sullen moons
Since our love came to bloom
Then tragedy swept in
Under the harvest moon
And just like our dreams
Awoken with screams
betrayal behest upon us
this bouquet of doom

“Please no my darling!”
she cried out on hands and knees
Quivering under the cross
It seemed now our love was lost
Just like Adam & Eve
The serpent is to deceive
So I pulled out my sword, cut off her head
As she let out a dreadful scream

but oh, how the blood doth flow
From her throat, down her breasts
To her area below

And as I relished
In her blood soaked kiss
My heart began to tremble
From her ice cold… lips
