Channeling Poe
I feel his darkest touch, this Master Poe
It seeps into my shadowed soul at night
My fingers fly, enchanted by his dark
And troubled heart, forsaking every light
The words pour forth, a flood for all to see
I, forged within this furnace, black as kohl
Unbidden do the verses smoothly flow
These pages filled now by his ancient soul
How troubled is my spirit, haunted, doomed
To dwell beneath his shadow, bleakness reigns
It is a place of wonder, lightless, grim
And dark the echoes, sorrowed the refrains
Oh, let her come to me, this Amilie
For I shall cherish her, though night should fall
Elusive is her love, yet I pursue
In hope, she shall my mortal heart enthrall
Like Poe, I languish, lost within her smile
Though unrequited, still my heart shall be
Ensorcelled by her aura, stricken down
To live in anguished grief, eternally
