One with the night

Through woods kissed by snow

Following the scent, I strain for speed

Spitting curses and blasphemy

Small creatures flee, as well they should

I cross frozen streams

Gaining precious steps

Malevolence and determination

After them, they hunt her

They must die

Child of moonlight

Now created in mine image

In the sanctuary of the cathedral

Under full moon, sharing the curse

This divine punishment

Brutal, bestial ritual sacrilege

Transformation

So passionate, so sensual

White wolf

Usurper, betrayal pierces deep

Furiously, master pursues coven’s

Unforgiveable sin

Just above the treeline

The pack falls upon my beloved

Ravaging gray feast

Her life spills out

Their howls echo

Fetid steam rises from torn meat

Feel the pain of the change

Primal unleashed as

Bones crack and the white hackles rise

Given the power of immutable being

Eternity enchained as lycanthrope

My soul – schizophrenia

Her wounds external, mine beneath

White wolf

I slaughter each a step slow

Arteries staining snow

Enraged, falling upon the bastard

Jowls close, his flesh tears

My retribution, such elation

But then I see her body there

And I despair

I despair

In the bleak reality

That love is as life

Transitory

Child of moonlight

If I had not failed you

If only you were here with me now

Solitary nomad, I wander inconsolable

Vigil unending

Blooms and thorns grow wild there

Across the ground where she fell

I return now and again

To talk to her memory and

Remember all

White wolf
