The Pain of The Dead read by by Sarnia de la Maré
In shadows deep where darkness weaves,
A tale unfolds amongst the leaves
Night beasts whisper a spectre's hymn,
In the haunted night where fears begin.
Through twisted branches a chilling wind,
Sings the sorrow of those who sinned.
Deadly echoes and distant wails,
Hymns of the dead and tragic tales.
Beneath the boughs where shadows dance,
Liquid figures I see by chance.
Phantoms lingered in the midnight air,
Their hollow gaze an empty stare.
A midnight walk with tombstones old,
I heard stories and secrets told.
Whispers rising from the cold,
Insects crawling on damp ground
Owls and bats the only sound.
Creaking floorboards a ghostly moan,
I traipsed the house that I called home.
Shivers on my skin like frost,
Where broken hearts and hopes are lost.
A spirit's touch a frosty breath,
Chilled by the graves the embrace of death.
They forced me then to dance and sway,
In the ghostly night where phantoms play.
Beware the hour when the clock strikes twelve,
For the netherworld, its secrets delve.
In the realm of souls still so forlorn,
I felt their pain, I brought them home.
