Queen of Blood

in poetry •  7 years ago

Black rose petals and pale blue water

Slowly turning red with the blood of the slaughtered

Line up the sinners

Sons and daughters

Fuel for the fires of the damned

Reap the souls sown on this cursed land

Let the rebels make their final stand

Drawn and quartered, flying hands

They call me queen of blood

Oh, yes I enjoy my name

As much as I enjoy watching them squirm and burn in the flames

Heretics must be punished

Any excuse for excess bloodshed

I've found a way to stay young forever

That liquid red gold splendor

Imbibe the blood from those young who are slain

Youth and strange powers are what you will gain

Souls equal power, after a lifetime
this is what you'll find

You may loose your mind

With so many memories to keep

People to eat

But their not quite people to you anymore

Just mindless cattle and nothing more

Nice poem, makes me think of Countess Bathory

Funny you say that, she's exactly who inspired this.
