Grey

Life's a journey...
Wild wind in the sails...
The open water...
An adventure...
But it comes a time
to settle down,
the ship to dock for good,
and gather last
of pieces left,
a page to turn,
from black to grey,
to stand your ground
and to protect!
When wind's not left
inside your heart,
the moment is
to sit down calm
next to the fire warm
where you belong,
where your home is.
And just take care,
and just be wise...

The being

A voice inside is
calling me.
A vision of a
dead tree.
I tried to reach
into my mind
for answers
of some kind.
With eyes
closed shut
in empty room
I sat.
I flew
in my head deep,
unconcious
as in sleep.
My darkness
'til I met...
T'was neither born,
nor dead -
a being of pure unlight!

The ribbon

Raindrops fall
down on cold ground,
something's odd
and twsited, bound...

Dead body lies
in muddy trench,
naked, crooked,
there's still no stench...

A ragged coat,
anonymously grey,
dropped over,
hides almost nothing from display...

The skin is pale,
hand's frozen in a greet,
on the small finger
pink ribbon's tide up neat...

All that will happen on repeat...

Void

An open grave...
A darkness...
In the hole I stare...
No bottom is to see...
Like falling free
into a nameless void...
Strange winds
blow from within...
A lightless night
surrounds me...
As if the world
does not exist...

Just emptiness...
And open grave...

A chilling feel
crawls through my spine...
My skin feels freezing...

It must be soundless
outside here...

But my head -
It's full of sounds...
A humming
Buzz
From in the void
And thundering
so far
same as one
you get before an earthquake...
And the whispers...
So many...
In the stream of cold...
So many...
Whispers...

"Come!
...Just fall!"

Odin's eye

An eye is price

for wisdom given,

when mind with crave

such madly's driven..

A hangin' tree,

spear's piercing point,

a sacrifical way

journey of a soul to join..

Consciousness

apart in darkness tears,

symbols glowing blue

strangely appear..

Thus the runes were born!

War

Villages are burning into flames
Beating drums of war
All hell broke loose here upon
Thunders roar by Tor

Soldiers brave in battle last
Swords are cutting flesh
Axes, hammers craving for
Enemie's blood fresh...

Wide open stand the gates,
Of Valhall's golden portal,
Valkyries take einherjars souls
For now they are immortal...

Proud is now Odin, the Allfather!

The candle..

Candle burning slow

Red fire flame

And burning eyes

Stare in the dark

It's me there

What is left

Of all I was

And all I will now be

My black heart

Beating with the candle

Same pace

Same fire

Same inferno

Demon in a skin

Of human flesh

My hell is mine

I rule alone

My destiny is mine

I claimed it

On my own!!!

let go

the evening came
with clouds and rain
the coldness slow
begins to drain
the life from you -
story to tell -
how you became
an empty shell...
a shadow grey
beyond repair
with left no will
bout life to care
so now is night
no moonlight though
no left or right
nowhere's a glow...
lay down
to rest last time
let go, just die...
to do it is no crime....

Thy Left Path

Hatred to the fish

Sheepflock unto the slaughter

Rise the star in shine

Almighty fivepointer

Bringer of light

The Morning son

Fire of the Prometheus

Thy will be done

The spell of sixes

Against a faith so hollow

Fulfilment for the strong

The Left path I'll follow!!!

Fire

The fire of Prometheus

burns bright,

forbidden knowledge,

truth is light -

Morning star

upon our soul, 

we'll bring above

what is below...

The sheep will fall,

wolf will prevail

...that's how

will end the tale!

Window

darkness,
my old friend...
whispers,
hidden talk,
head full of voices,
emptiness outside
and silence...
sun and shines
from far...
you stare
from the window
of your soul...
from the void

Rain drops

a face in dirt
mud dry
on naked skin
hand stretched
to where
with body
in a rigor
cold wind
rain drop
a feeling
cut marks deep
overwhelming darkness
red leaves
rain drops
rain drops
blank eyes
that stare in nothing
red ribbon on the side
soil under nails
an empty vessel
picture
art?!?

Ready

i'm not affraid to die
cause i've been loved,
yet i don't want to loose
this love by dying...
i am a man so strong
i would not cry,
but then i don't feel
shamed for love if crying...
and i have said some words
which were nice lie,
but no more i would do -
no speech of lying...
when spent my life,
the rest of it, for
the one i love so deep -
i'll be ready for dying!

How

A way...
There one exist
Assumed to be the right...
But what supposed it is
To do
If feels not...
Even is not thought
By the mind...
A step...
There one exist
That I can't take
For I don't know it...
But is considered normal...
How could a mind be
As it should
If it is not...

Stay forever

The ocean deep
devoured time,
vast void of darkness cold...
So many secrets,
so much past,
of ancient memories untold...
Come - dive in,
deeper down,
where light is gone forsaken...
Let that last
breath of yours
by the water to be taken...
Come - dive in...
Stay forever...

Ia

A temple
deep at oceans floor
awaits for me to dive,
secrets there sealed
and ancient words
in otherworldly way,
i hear the voice
as made of water
calls my name,
"come home, my child,
your place is here,
where angels cannot fly",
and i don't need
to take a breath
while diving in the void
of darkness with a green
dark green unlight...
Ia, my lord
Ia, great one
Ia Ia Cthulhu....
your son is home and praise to you...
Ia Cthulhu fhtagn!!!

Thrill

a blade

so cold

the steel

can cut

through

will

make

mutilation

bleed

possess

dark

greed

for

flesh

scars deep

wounds

sacrificial 

sheep

let loose

all

dark

inside

which

barks

the

ecstasy

of kill

the pain

migrane

to heal....

Unbaptised

Don't fear me, girl,
I am the darkness,
Don't fear me, girl,
I am just hell...
Open your soul,
Accept my blackness,
Fall down with me -
You'll feel so well!

Give me pale hand,
Loose those white wings,
No need of them,
For you Inferno brings
Black shiny feathers,
Attached with necrostrings...
Now rise above and fly
Into majestic fire rings!

The Coven

Burning souls of fire hidden,
Flames through forests dark,
Horned beasts are roaming,
Hear their evil bark!

Witches's dancing circles
With extasy of black mess flesh,
Dark master celebrating
A feast upon a blood so fresh...

Holy words reversely spelt ,
The shadow of Leviathan arose,
Your path is now awaken,
A destiny you chose!!!

To Vinland​.​.​.

To Vinland​.​.​.

lyrics

To Vinland they sailed!
To Glory and Death!
Valhalla awaits them!
Vikings on raid!

In this freezing day,
on the battlefield,
there they stand so still,
in their dying time.
Feeling no remorse
of the clash they fought,
awaiting the Valkyries
to send them to Valhalla.

Odin's eye is on them
they know it is true
in these forests so strange
on this distant west land

They came as raiders
and *they* found wild men
with weird clothes and faces
wielding bow and short axe

To Vinland they sailed!
To Glory and Death!
Valhalla awaits them!
Vikings on raid!

The Vikings cried out loud
to call the strenght of Thor
and with the fire of war
bursting through their veins
hacked and slashed enemies
almost won the battle
but they were so few
brave as hell but outnumbered

So they lost and died
but with honor and pride
They won their place in Valhalla
on the shores of Vinland!

To Vinland they sailed!
To Glory and Death!
Valhalla awaits them!
Vikings on raid!
