Ancient Ceremony



Fallen Angel's Symphony



Death In Desire's Masquerade





Death came to me as Maiden



Death came to me as Beast







Venus smiled at us that eerie Autumn Night



Candlelight Banquet in Victorian Halls enflamed my Love for Her



Even Poet's passionate Verses were unable to evoke



a true Description of such tremendous Fierceness



Though appearing as sweet Woman



such a Beauty could not be human



"Art Thou my Destiny?"



Whilst we embraced Moonlight touched Thy soft Lips



Such pale Skin, as white as purest Snow



Wind curled Thy ebony Hair like Vipers on Medusa's Head



Less the Horror than the Grace turned me almost into Stone



Infected with such idolatrous Shape my deepest Dreams came true



These red magic Eyes, like bleeding Flowers



made me Slave to Her



Erotic Kisses under whispering Trees



were my Foretaste of Eden



Melancholia's Fire burnt in highest Flames



when She told me to leave



"Will Thou be mine again, most sinful of all Demons?"







"Encrimsoned Fullmoon is the Sign



when my Spirit shall cover Thine



At the eldest Oak of the Midnight Forest



I'll teach Thee Secrets buried in Stone



and by a Force to Man unknown



I shall never be alone!"







With blind Thirst for that doomy Hour



I wandered through my Days like (in) Trances



Tears of Blood stole from Moon's Eyes and were Omen to me



Bats haunted deep nightly Woods



whilst we kissed again in fierce Nocturnal Embrace



Love-drunken Slumber led me away from Mortal's sighing World







"Awake now to face my real Countenance!"







Thus to me spake Azrael in the Robe of godlike Beauty







"Hades sent His loveliest Angel



to grant Thee Expiration divine!"







Death came in Desire's Masquerade
