As Blood Moves

Gory Blister

... the wind now rose with great violence
 The moon was beginning to descend
 The clouds swept across it and dimmed her rays
 While the lake reflected the scene of the busy heavens
 Rendered still busier by the restless waves
 Suddenly a heavy storm of rain descended...

 Ages followed ages in endless history
 Asleep was my blood
 Covered with my home-ground
 The vibe of life felt...

 Restless through my veins
 Was it when liv'd the sight
 She one soul enraptures
 Then vanishes forever

 Thus hath such a tempest overwhelmed my own fate
 My heart enabled again to love or hate
 Once my dull sleep broken enlighted was the quest
 For my blood thine feels rejecting all the rest

 Damned am I and suffering
 Sith the first day my sleep I lost...

 ...as blood moves
 My heart bleeds
 And dresses me in red

 'who bleeds for love
 Deceived is by beauty
 He'll roam in the dark
 And drink blood in eternity'

 As blue and refreshing is the sea of my passion
 Or clash may the clouds stormy my darkness
 Thy nearness my blood feels with serene emotion
 Or suffers alone crying out thy remoteness

 Sith the first day art thou my mistress

 ...as blood moves
 My heart bleeds...
 ...and dresses me in red

 '...a batlike soul waking to the consciousness of itself
 In darkness and secrecy and loneliness.'
