Amid silence and darkness
He came cloaked in mystery like a dark shadow that was cast over me
My dreams began when I felt my heart pierced by his sword
I knew not the hour or the season when this dark fairytale happened
His kiss was a smash between lust and death
I fell into an unconscious state of ecstasy and frenzy in my nightly unrest
I never desired and feared something so much
He crept with extreme longing and ghostly strokes
Making me tremble beneath his infernal art
Pleasure and terror twined in my heart
I remained enveloped by a towering gloomy cloud
He opened my bosom, grabbing my soul with his pointed fingers
My blood ran down like a crimson river full of chaos and bewilderment
He was staring at me as if he could see my spirit
My incubus was my favourite nightmare and my most dreadful fear
I could hear his whispers like bewitching hisses
He had cast a wicked spell over me and I was in a trance
Oblivious of my doomed fate bound to this creature of the night
Suddenly, I felt like a wanderer in an infinite ocean under the influence of a storm
I lost connection with myself and I became a stranger in the mirror
I felt choked by a toxic haze, and poison ran through my veins
I had become a creature of darkness as well
The vicious demon was my only obsession
I transformed into his slave completely subjugated to its enchantments
I was dead as I had become the bride of such an angel of death
Amid silence and darkness
My body had become his altar
And nightmares bloomed like withered flowers
He made me cry tears of ice and flames
I was no longer a mortal
I was a wraith drawn from shadow and sighs.
