A Return To Innocence, Reclamation, Where Demons Tread

My Love’s Muse

Candid Corvid Productions

I know we are both wrecked
And armor has layered thick

Yet we can unpack slowly
Or even cut straight into it

Dismantling past injuries
Chinks in mail adhered to

When had no other choices
But to adopt others’ retinue

We know the warriors creed
To never let down our guard

But you and I were born for more
Than bloody-battled fealty tartars

We can take the skills we’ve learned
Weave coloured paradise paradigms

For you, for me, and the world
To restore belief in love again

Oh say you want this with me
Let’s embrace this life’s gaety!

In daylight spiraling galaxies
At night tending our wounds

A Return To Innocence, Myths & Legends, Reclamation, Where Demons Tread

Awaken, My Love, Awaken

Candid Corvid Productions

Like Orpheus and Eurydice
Lovers entwined in tragedy

You and I have sung songs to
Awaken what was lost to death

Only this time, my love, my heart
Sings you back into human form

Undead, arise my beloved intended
Ever art thou of the noblest crowned

And though I look over – for I must
To ensure you are still pacing beside

You shall not fade to aggrieved destiny
Follow me, follow me, follow me home

To the mundane where love still roams
Come home, my life, my hope, my world

Be at peace, come rejoice and be heard
For ever art thou my deliverance’s boon

We shall trace our names upon Eden’s trees
As its blooms are restored by love’s eternity

And we shall not want no matter sacrifice
For we‘ll find our souls’ promises redeemed

A Woman's Plight, Where Demons Tread

Dear Friend,

Candid Corvid Productions

This is what I want
Something between

Our hearts that is ours
No one may take away

Because our instincts
Remain pure-attuned

And if we falter we lift
Each other’s spirits up

Redefining vision of
Desired loving unity

Be my guiding believer
Be my daily adventure

For I am weak without
The strength you give

Grant me comfort in
Heat of your shelter

Without which I only
Dream of life to begin

Where Demons Tread

Dear Friend,

“Maybe you already understand, but I need to say it.

If you join with me, know tha I am in the thick of it.

I’d try, but I can’t hide the flaws in my circumstances when in my home.

But neither would you be denied the benefits of being with me if we worked together productively.

And, of course, I imagine that you have your own issues and challenges that we’d need to work through.

I just want to be able to greet you with open arms and say, “Welcome to the family!”

And we’d need to get everything financially and otherwise stable, as well as figure out how to make it all short-term and then sustainably functional.”

Hell Bound

Candid Corvid Productions

The Black kept gripping, even as she kept slipping out of its clutches.

Realizing she must have made a wrong turn somewhere, she sensed that she had traveled deeper into the catacombs.

But there was a dim light ahead where people were crowded and surging, and the sweetest, most intoxicatingly soul-ravaging music lured her to witness a dark knight and his entourage performing in impassioned glory.

From that moment, she was smitten by a force Hell could never even dream to compete for.
