WAR, FATHER
Where the two suns conflict
From the fathomless voids
Bring flames
From utter silence bring cries
In harmony withstand
All wisdom bind
With fires light the lands
Each mountaintop your shrine
War, Father and ruler of all
From chaos come forth
By everlasting fire born
Light and darkness, flesh and spirit
Timeless principle of cosmic lore
Primeval force , alone divine
Eternally we cross
The paths you sanctify
War, Father and ruler of all
Your temples, our souls
By everlasting fire born
Where the death of a world
Is an other’s revival
And the beast bites down for survival
All bound to your kingdom
All bound to your throne
Father War
SACRED GAIA
Meteor swarms
Upon the burning sphere
And acid rain and snow
From lashing skies
Of billions of years
With the vision of the creation
Proud she passed through fire and ice
A rising giant, carved with solar scars
Sculpture of cosmic battles
The shining citadel of stars
Breathing fields, crying sunsets
Raging seas, silent darkness
Menacing beings, flowing seasons
Colorful canvas
To the ecstatic journey of exaltation
Thus she braced the odyssey
Of manifestation
Sacred Gaia, Mother of breath
Trembling goddess, almighty earth
I kneel to countless ages
Of miracles revealed
Awaken upon your sacred ground
I felt, I breathed
My essence cried out loud
Granted this journey
Under your dark caress
I walk your path of perils
With flesh of your living flesh
And when I perish
Upon your sacred ground
And enter the realm of gods
Cast me to the endless
Awakening of rivers
As blood of your living blood
And cast me to the rising
Serenity of mountains
As flesh of your living flesh
THE CHTHONIC UPRISING
Mighty gaia awakes
With relentless rage
Unleashing eruptions
Ground dividing quakes
Cursing her womb
Burying all life in a tomb
Reforming under her crust
For thousands seasons of dust
A feast of falling towers
And vanishing empires
Dead kings and slaves burning
A million fires spreading
The mighty ocean, commands
The waters to vanish the lands
In his primal lust he creates
Vast tidal waves
In a vortex he’ll drown
Every trace of life around
Bringing down mankind
From the crest
For thousands seasons to rest
A feast of falling towers
And vanishing empires
Embers of flesh
Feeding highest pyres
Flames brace the sunset
As life turns to absence
Been sung the last song of sirens
The world has drown in silence
Fiery winds in an endless desert
The empires of filth
Are vanquished forever
No lifeform, none to see the stars
The moon and the sun
Fallen into ruin
The earth revives alone
No tower, no god
No throne and no crown
One with dust
The world has fallen down
MY QUEST FOR LIGHT
My quest for light begins
A thousand aeons of stars ago
Between the raging skies
And the dreams of the never born
Fallen into matter and shape
Where space and time were forged
I watched the newborn stars
Torching the black relentless voids
The rage of all suns
Only a spark of the true light
A lure and a mirror
For senses blind
Fallen in duality
The light itself was torn
In fragments of reality
Struggling to recall
Dust enshrouded galaxies
Luminous paths of stars
Strongholds of a vision
Where division expands
Perpetual, radiant
Yet unborn
Reforming inside an endless cycle
Where beginning and end coincide
My fall from light begins
With the great division of souls
From chaos descending
To cosmic fields
Through tunnels cold
And crushing storms
My quest for light may last
A thousand aeons of stars to come
The chaos regaining with the vast
And scattered soul in one
VERNAL ASCENDANCE
The eastern sky ablaze
A dawn from hades shines
Arising from the ashes
Of the deepest winter nights
Through halls of gold and silence
The mighty queen ascends
To meet the mourning mother
And dry the tears of the earth
Balancing on crossroads
Swirling between parallel worlds
The passage old, as the earth and sky
And Hekate lights the way
Dark forests call for her
Dark waters call for her
The constellations gather
To summon her
When Arcturus leaves
The sacred stream of Oceanus
To shine as the night begins
Then she will return
When the mother calls
And the swallows return
To the fountains
Behold the equinox
The daughter walks the earth
Ascending, ecstatic
Her spirit pierces the veil
To feast with pleasure
The light of the reborn sun
As the sun returns to the skythrone
The cosmic ritual resonates
‘’Burn, the horizon
reverent flame’’
It’s the northward sign of revival
A sea of light on a million shades
‘’Turn the wheel of fortune
your hands blessed’’
GRANT ME THE VOID
I am the hand
Dissolving illusions
I bear no sun
And no ultimate nightfall
I raise the cries
Of a thousand fragments,
Above the unbearable beauty of idols
I’m abstract dreams within dreams
Cosmic seasons feverish
And tales of lifetimes
In a glimpse of infinity
I bring the shivers of unification
I speak no tongue
No thoughts of creation
I grant no truth but a living mystery
Widely open to imagination
At the end of your roaring existence
I’m fire of chaos unquenchable
I’m both redemption and tragedy
And I am the opposites
The countless manifestations
The flooded reveries
The blood of procreation
The wind, the flame
The earth and waters cry
And I am alone
Their quintessence divine
Unchained
You’ll be exalted through despair
Where hope and fear have melted
Where all the truths have faded
CROSSROADS TO ETERNITY
Etchings of life
Adorn the stars
The realm of Ancients
The lands of afar
My travels have made me
Estranged and weary
As I came
To observe decay
The temples once raised
Now they lie in ruins
And all that once prospered
Dissolves in plain sight
The battles
Once fought by mortals forlorn
Can’t rest in oblivion
Still thirst for the blood
I watched the decadence
Through cosmic eyes
Now I traverse from this crossroad
To the eternal lands
There is the light
Where they once lay to die
Reaching the hall
The ancestral abode
Deep in the akashic field
The grand past I’ll see retrieved
As the fathers burn and pass
Through the pyres to eternity
