Theia - wasn't one
to reap the mercy of God
The Eye of the village
Will dictate the fate
And oppress all prayers of the raped
A presence of a whisper that said
"Seek out a potion to voice the dead."
Startled she preached "This is all I long for."
Age Old All-Knowing fall to knee
And praise her vigorous impiety.
Puritan lusting influence and bitter witchcraft.
Molding Divine Will through murmured jargon.
Heart in Limbo.
Mind in Hell.
The void inhaled her illusory soul.
Fantasies of unfaithful men poisoned and diseased.
Begging for release of death's cold grip.
Shrieking her laments to an apathetic sky.
Peace resides, drop out. Fall back into a former time.
Childhood visions.
Simpler times.
An honest seed sprouting hatred.
Epoch of faith led in chains.
She sets flame to the scripture.
Submits to illicit ritual.
Bows to the candles in lieu of crucifix.
Her conscious slips into the night.
The body and mind open wide -
Summon an offering from the other side.
Sweet substance rectify.
Fooled by the cheekiness of a seasoned tongue.
With the bodies entwined the soul is no longer young.
Her delusions allure
An infernal calling.

Hail The Unholy

An ominous chant awakens Theia.
"Align with us false-hearted seraph.
Let your grim heart speak for your being."
Coalesce with unsacred union.
Worship the muted dusk
Embrace obscene practice
Slithering through the pine with heated palms.
Pursuing sleeping beasts for sacrifice.
Secular abuse feeding inception.
Subduing the ancient evil.
Skin the furs and bathe in the blood
Carve the portal onto the flattened stump
Hail, faceless druid, cheer, young huntress
Sinister affairs spread disorder
Blistered will restrain beauty
Whipping the backs of the shepherds
Breaching eternal anonymity
Ceremony grants celestial weight
Feeling the depths clench at her heels
The ingress opens spiraling into haze

Forbidden Pact

A force of light that blinds at first glance.
The aurora diverges an unspoken form.
Lewd visions bid a deathly trance.
Madness leaves her mind feeling numb.
Her child born from a morbid womb
In a coven of hell
As a sacrifice to the unholy tomb
To her knees she fell
Chewing the blood from her nails
Agony awakens shame
“I own these idle hands”
“It cannot be undone"

Rise
Darkness encircles the one
Conjure the wicked tongues
Shadows reveal horns and claws
Souls dance to the rhythm of evocation
Grievance weakens Theia
Shrouded figures bind her limbs
Rope tears the skin, stretches the bone
Dragging young witch into abysmal rift
Eidolon-like form floats at the door
Chanting dead language from unearthly tome
The damned burden the land with fearsome intent
To crucify the mother of the nephilim
Relentless earth lacerates
Mind recollects incantation
Whisper the nightmarish tune of the dead
Awaken the corpses of your reign as the slayer
Cemetery soil erupts Cerberus’ breath
Postponing the clutch of looming cessation
Strife ensues, Magicks flare.
Carrions flood to liberate.
Cult Anger, Burns flesh to ash.
Theia climbs aging oak.
Piercing eyes rot flora.
Injured and gored she lays in defeat.
Jabbed through the chest like Christ on the cross.
Led back to the village’s church.
She carries her burden to her doom.
Congregation in robe and mask.
Welcome abhorrence, a bitter disdain.
“Spit on the martyr, Depart tainted soul”
A hymnal roar, Dooming augur.
Nailed to the cedar, fear poisons her mind.
The clan lifts their veil revealing lifelong acquaintance.
Blood dripping onto the divine altar.
Theia becomes one with smoke and fire.
A child’s arm extends to her spirit.
(Betrayed Lamb)
Devoured by the seed of her womb.
(Eternal Anguish)
