Just Once, My Love

(Marquis Smith )

"Just Once, My Love" details a person losing someone very dear to them and then sort of blaming God for their lose. Inspiration taken from My Dying Bride. No rhyme scheme here. Very mournful. MDB's "The Angel and the Dark River" was the album that inspired me the most to pen this. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Doom metal, gothic metal.

My love is dying. I wish I could keep the veil from drawing nigh. Oh God, why? Your chastisement is too much to bear I grit my teeth as tears lash my cheeks I wish I was the one laying in that very place But no. Not me. I stand upon my king placing a crown of sympathy. Hear me and hear me well. I will love you, always Your limbs brittle and the life contorts within them Our love was always cursed like the fig tree, always For just one kiss only did you strive for My eyes beheld you, bedridden with sores and struck with severe fatigued. You raised your trembling hand and touched my face. It was all the strength you had to offer. Had it been God's will then you would've blossomed Right now Held each of your pedals in my hand until a cruel fate blew them away. If only you could open your eyes. Just once, my love. Not this way! Not like this!

"The Linkage" is simply about finding one's self. Burning away the old self and arising from the ashes like a phoenix. Understanding that we are flawed and accepting humanity. Linking together.

The Outcast

By Marquis Smith

"The Outcast" details a person who knew someone that committed suicide by gunshot to the head. The character feels a mixture of hurt, contempt, and sadness for the person that chose this course of action. This person is disgusted yet recalls the loved one's distant behavior toward the end. Not really a rhyme scheme here. I wrote this awhile back listening bands like Lamb of God. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Groove metal/ Metal.

Tabernacle Debacle

By Marquis Smith

In Tabernacle Debacle we see not a total absence of faith but a lack there of. And a admittance of a higher power though the character may feel alone. This person had high faith just like the character in my piece called The Thorn of Misery. But there's a struggle within. A struggle that becomes even more apparent because there isn't an answer readily available to the character (or so he or she thinks!). The very fact that this being had woke up is proof enough! But this isn't meant to be happy. I was inspired by death doom metal when I wrote this piece. Not so much poetic like some of my other pieces. Just in your face death doom. Think early work from the like of My Dying Bride. No rhyme scheme. I envision harsh gutteral vocals:)

A Mountain of Grey

By Steven Soucy

A.Mountain of Grey is a very dark, depressing song about serious depression and thoughts of suicide. About feeling so overwhelmed and buried under a mountain of sadness and guilt. A very powerful, emotional song.
