Angel by Ericka When loss of life doth drag me to The fiery depths of Satan’s lair My bleeding heart cries unto you An angel far beyond compare. Your piercing eyes of clearest blue Fight hatred with a single glance And lock with mine, a dream come true A pair that has a fighting chance. You kneel as snowy wings retract And nod a sign from you to me. I climb and sit astride your back. You lift your wings and then we flee. The darkness dims your gleaming coat And turns its sheen from white to g...

Crimson Light by Ericka Beneath the light of a crimson moon, A tiger lily weeps. Her silver teardrops fall in silence. And the sorrow remains. Wasting her sobs, she cries for rain.

Little Nightmare by Ericka Sweet oblivion, why have you left me? Dragged from the darkness into sunlight I lie in wait until summoned. My hunger never to be sated A thirst that can't be quenched. A Nightmare not meant for this world, Ever wishing for a non-living state, Not caring about reality, for reality is nothing. Longing to be blinded once more From the light, from emotion, from need. Unfamiliar speech rolling off my tongue Unfamiliar thoughts racing through my mind A living Nightmare d...
