Trapped inside a fantasy,
Lost within his dreams,
Enslaved by pure insanity,
A hopeless cause it seems.

Gripped by desperation,
Lost in what he believes,
Entrenched in preconception,
A flawed future he perceives.

Mapping out false history,
Lost inside words so sweet,
Engaged deep in the mystery,
A soul swept off his feet.

Sapping all his energy,
Lost in a world of bliss,
Embracing hopeful synergy,
A victim to fate’s kiss.

Another dark sun dawns today,
Another dream soon swept away,
Another stage for her to play,
Another crowd for her to sway.

Another dark march to the field,
Another dream lost as they yield,
Another heart for her to wield,
Another love to be concealed.

Another dark night settles in,
Another dream for her to spin,
Another soul to turn to sin,
Another lie that must begin.

Mind so sharp and full of wit,
A challenge most would have to quit,
An angel with a demon's spark,
Her words will cut and leave a mark.

Eyes that smile and sparkle bright,
Two stars to light the darkest night.
An angel with a demon's glance,
Her gaze consumes your soul's last chance.

Lips that call you to her kiss,
A prize no mortal soul should miss.
An angel with a demon's smile,
Her tongue will tempt you with its guile.

Skin soft as a satin sheet,
One touch confirms your soul's defeat.
An angel with a demon's wings,
Her claws will bleed you as she sings.

Curves and lines like works of art,
The perfect shape to melt your heart.
An angel with a demon's lust,
Her love will turn your soul to dust.

Souls are formed before our birth,
Sent down to live with us on earth,
Brought from the void into the light,
Instructed in both wrong and right.

Souls unite with skin and bone,
Our mind designed to be their throne,
Directing us throughout our life,
Connecting us through joy and strife.

Souls will share the things they know,
With those that learn the way to go,
Their gifts will shape the world we see,
Creating all we’ll come to be.

Power courses through each vein,
Venom fills a tyrant's brain,
Her eyes will tell you that you're prey,
Her words will keep you far away.

Danger waits for mortal man,
When all is not done to her plan,
Her claws will tear away your skin,
Her voice will break the heart within.

Hunger fuels that brutal call,
Bloodlust victims one and all,
Her fangs will drain your body dry,
Her growl will haunt you till you die.

Love was not meant for her kind,
No equal for her soul to find,
Her touch too strong for those alive,
Her kiss a poison none survive.

Pain and torture are her friend,
To hell your soul she'll quickly send,
Her blade a silent enemy,
Her smile your final memory.

Karma may demand a fee,
The void may be her destiny,
Her rule will stand for now at least,
Her name will last once time has ceased.

Though history may forget her kind,
Each life she's touched will soon remind,
The people of a thousand lands,
Of all the work done by her hands.

Through magick that her soul has spun,
Each mind's defence has been undone,
The beating of a thousand hearts,
Still call for her when she departs.

Though truth and love have been her kin,
Each breath gives her recourse to sin,
The secrets of a thousand lives,
Consumed in all that she contrives.

Through corridors of time and space,
Each dream she has will leave a trace,
The sketches of a thousand hands,
Will share what no one understands.

Though years fade into shadows deep,
Each memory her mind will keep,
The feelings of a thousand hearts,
Retained in all their broken parts.

As this year’s end draws into sight,
with it comes a fresh new light,
a time of change- to break new ground,
a chance to make a fresh new sound.

Now clear the air of all that’s been,
and wipe the slate completely clean,
to close the book and live once more,
we must keep faith and not the score.

So start afresh with your new day,
and shine that light in your own way,
to make a stand for something true,
and take a chance on life anew.
