Onward to the One
C4C!
Sprinting, falling, failing breath As Pheidippides march Tirelessly, tormented Onward to the One Laying out the plans In crypts on mountain high She designed the path For my demise Secretly she plotted, Manipulating me Into carnal beast With Teeth of steel to lead Now I taste her fear, The sweetest of perfumes Returning with lust’s bluest flame Temptress of fate! Soon you’ll fall Into my embrace And soon So soon! Your soul is mine Ascend the slope That steepest climb My will bridging divide I, to hold her hand I, to watch her die Goliath of earth unyielding Sending arms of ardent light With each moment drawing nearer Feeding the furnace of my desire This mountain Her last bastion of hope Like a child I hear her sob on high But fear not my little one Your knight is closing in Not all can be saved I’m coming for you my dearest This longing drives me on To have you To hold I’d tear out my own heart Just as I’ve come to feast on yours |

I love the epic feel to this, it's almost told like some great ancient Greek saga, only to end with a chilling twist (albeit one that's heavily foreshadowed).
I especially like this stanza: Quote:
With that like diad at the end bringing out the essence of the piece. Excellent work, this, with my only real criticism being that sometimes, the implied complexity of your language took me away from what I thought you might have been trying to say, with a couple of references seeming a tad obscure. That was a personal thing though. Otherwise, keep up the good work. And if you're doing the whole c4c thing, my meagre contribution to the songwriting forum is here.

Only a few bits i'd say needed work but it's very good overall, sounds dramatic.
