From: a priestess' lament


SHaYap

728 views

The fires of Eros

sang wearily

Gentle tongues of flames

flicks at the altar

the petals of roses heated

In veiled scalded scents

lightly drapes the priestess

A gentle tug at her harp

Humming, a heart wrenching

lament to the heavens

Her nymphs

In pure uncovered purity

a noble mockery of lust

Nakedness untouched

beyond mortal corruption

In one woeful voice

shudders the temple

Beyond the shadows

Hopelessly infatuated fools

Leaps and dance

in pretended blindness

Languishing on the lips of cliffs

Littered with lost hearts

Abandoned with carelessness

claimed to have been stolen

The Wretched liars

Pounding hollow sounding bleeding chests

Wailing in pitiful mournful sorrow

Dares accuse Venus

The fires of Eros

sang quietly

Sensous tongues of flames

Lights and catches lust in wayward hearts

Eyes dulled to cursed reason

to love in blinding blindness

The priestess strokes at her harp

Enchantment reverberate in hollow chambers

Resurrect lust disguised

Exposing the unworthy

To dance to symphonic silence

To leap off the edge of reason

The flames of Eros

Whispers gently

to the heavens

A rueful lament of

The priestess
