O my love of blackest night

From dreams I wake with your bitter kiss

In comparison I'm just a blight

Your words, tho dark, fill me with peaceful bliss

My heart yearns for your tender touch, my love

The sun is falling, owls and wolves gather

They sing for us! voices rising above!

A wondrous night to be together!

Bats dance like butterflies in the star sea

Shadows grow as the light recedes swiftly

The thick crimson blood shall become your tea

Behind me you crept, walking silently

I lend my neck to you on this very eve

Love after death is what I believe
