My Love

Why do you carry the weight of the world in your hands
Do you think that I don’t see or I can’t understand
Please just share the weight of the burdens inside my love

Is the crown you wear upon your head growing heavy
I often fear that it’s weight on you may be deadly
Please I beg just let go of your foolish pride my love

I know you feel like you must walk this road on your own
Don’t you see I am here you don’t have to be alone
I will always be their waiting by your side my love

Ancient One

Oh Ancient One of times long ago
Your many faces we long to know
Oh horned one of wild woods
He who stalks on cloven hooves

We call to you Youth of the trees
We hear your name sung on the breeze
Horned Prince,Hunter,and Prey
Rising Sun of a new day

Oh Ancient One of times long ago
Your many faces we long to know
Oh horned one of wild woods
He who stalks on cloven hooves

We call to you Lord of the hunt
We see your face in the forest Ancient
Horned King,Father,and Man
Midday Sun in which we stand

Oh Ancient One of times long ago
Your many faces we long to know
Oh horned one of wild woods
He who stalks on cloven hooves

We call to you Sage of the wild
We seek your wisdom for we are like child
Horned Shaman, Hermit, and King
Setting Sun and darkness you bring

Oh Ancient One of times long ago
Your many faces we long to know
Oh horned one of wild woods
He who stalks on cloven hooves

Ode to the New Moon Goddess

Dark lady of the crossroads  
Within your storm illusions erode Stripped clean of our walls we stand
 Skyclad we take thy fiery brand
 A mark upon our brow illuminates  In our inner darkness we meditate Guided by your torches we travel In your labyrinth we quickly unravel  
We are your children pull us tight So we may explore the labyrinth this night

Venus

He is Venus incarnate on this mortal plane 
Yet finds nothing in himself plagued by darkness and pain 

Every passing day is a constant fight in his mind  
Every lonely night is a hell with no light to find
 
If only he could see through to his warm glowing core 
So he could see that beneath his flesh there is more 

Underneath the flaws that I can’t see but he fears 
That light that’s been buried by the burden of the years 

If I could rip away the lovely flesh that holds you bound 
I'd show you that beneath it all is where your beauty is found

It is the root of all suffering
The poisonous bud blossoming
It's tendril will choke and consume
Reaching deeper leaving no room
The leaves will devour every light
Bittersweet berries a deadly delight
I am the root of all agonizing pain
My poison a potent drug to abstain
My tendrils I will be thy blissful doom
You are that which I crave to consume My leaves will steal your lovely lights
The bitter berries my horrid blight

I am afraid
I panic as I try to explain through razor blade words that catch in my throat
Each emotion becoming another grotesque indistinguishable note
Sleep no longer grants a repose from the never ending march toward death
It has only served to isolate me when I awake struggling for breath
I can feel the weight on my chest grow heavier with no rest
Like a witch with stones piled on her caving chest
I'm at the edge of the abyss unsure if I should jump or turn to flee
If I plunge into the darkness will there even be a memory left of me
I am afraid

Mullato

Where do I belong?
For my kind the lines blur
I say I'm black I'm wrong?

Then how can I be right?
For my kind it's so unsure
To the others I'm not white

All this I could easily bare
If not for the hate and slurs
I know I don't fit anywhere
