These Woods

By Riven Waker

i have walked alone with pain untold
in ageless days through woods so grave
i have walked alone dying by the insult
ever dying in the empty lonesome void

i have walked through these wood sthe denizen and troll
i have walked alone with the pain and the dying
i have walked through these woods glimpsed you through the clearings
in orgiastic fervor silver and moonlit o father and daughter
as your dying son crawled in his blood through the wooded paths

i watched you in splendour and bliss passing panes of moonlits livery
spawns slit from oblivion in pleasure lost as i knew and tasted of death untold and innumerable
i crawled and still drag myself through blood and soil and detris of the old wroth trees
i watch your ignorant orges infecting my corpswounds with the grave insult unanswerable
unanswerable in my forced silence and solitude
i cannot speak of my wrath it burns far beyond the power of all souls
for in your orgies you slaughtered the ogre son in passing ungiven glances
and i drag myself through these grave dark woods and empty words
and the old and great wroth trees stood silenced speak of my rise
and i shall say to you i did not ask this death and insult of you children
for i am the son ever the son of midnite for now i bring you death
my Death i bring you death speak not a single word to me for i bring you only death lost children
my Death speak not a word to me for i bring you death i only bring you deat i bring you death forevermore children you have killed my eternal soul of as child and there is no forgiveness for i bring you death i bring death foprveremore to you children to you my Death children

    The cruel repetition at the end was hypnotic. Like a threat to anyone who makes the mistake of getting in the way. Vivid visuals throughout. Gracias :p
