Tragedy in Hope - The Celebration Of Despair And Woe

Grace of anguished reverence
And gloom of a lean grimace
Dreadful screams of agony
At a delicious fable's scene
How charming the ache is
Like a precious kiss in languid bliss among the moonlight's gleams
Bewitched by the thrill
She revels in the nocturnal spree amid swank columns of ivory
Sorrow palace of the shattered glass
Falling tears and her mourning art
Scalding fragrance of aphrodisiacs
Filled the air with its lewd witchcraft
Lights of the dazzling masquerade
Music, dances, haughty glances
Malicious tongues, salacious talks
Such a beautiful folk
Voluptuous lips, coquettish eyes
A dark-red attire, a necklace, silk tights
The merciful gift of an affectional adieu
The humble lady was defiled, abused, allured
She was sepulchered
Under the weight of the secret love
The terrible truth should have bowed
But on the edge of the tragedy
Her desperate action made him free
Fly to the fair paradise
Indelible shame and dishonor demised
If together they were like a patrician and a whore
Their confession would be a doom
Ripple of laughter and a mockery after
Caws of mirk crows, sharp and curved claws
Gossips that tickle curious minds
Courteously crawl in souls of all kinds
Sweet flattery caused a blush on the young face
After two days she was found, cut veins
In anticipation of the scarlet sunset
She learned to dance a vulgar minuet
Cautiously entered the sumptuous hall
Dirty, wet thoughts became a crucial role
Like yellow leafs on a weeping willow
Algid hearts blaze in ecstasy
Amused by spellbinding Eros
She engendered sick fantasies
Greedy hands touched her waist
Fondled her body, pinched smooth legs and the pretty face
This poor girl shone like a pearl
Among arrogant lords on the tumultuous ball
A piercing scream in the mist
Then stony silence, cuts on wrists
Chill winds whisper, she is missed
In the woods beneath the blood moon eclipse
She had to save him from disgrace
But got lost in a maze of myriad ways
He met her in a theatre
A curtsy for the noble
A quaint wink for the girl
They fell in love like no one else before
Secret meetings at the lake
They hid from the eyes of thousands of snakes
This promise will never be broken
Under tall trees, he got down on knee
Mannerly asked for my hand
He pulled out the ring, it glaringly blinked
Bewildered and glad I agreed
Soon will be a ball, I should tell them all
But you will be stained for the rest of your life
I'm ready to lose my noble pride
I can't let them cover you in a mournful pall
Under sneers of sluts and knaves
They were buried in the nameless graves
And softly echoed someone's laugh in the woods
The celebration of despair and woe
Enchanting sounds of violins
Should've played a funeral theme
Instead of the dissolute symphony
Haughty grins and the broken dream
Followed two lovers in their farewell hours
