Thorned Flesh (Marquis Smith )

Thorned Flesh I often consider a companion piece to "To Lull a Sadist to Sleep." It describes the abused obsession with the masochistic nature of the Sadist. This person would do anything to pleasure their god. Classic AABB & AAAA. Loosely inspired by My Dying Bride. Preferred genres (but not limited to) doom metal/gothic metal/death doom metal.

The Songless Song (Marquis Smith )

"The Songless Song" details a person with the mindset, "If I can't have you then no one will." It starts with a question, this person seems to elude the author. The author feels as though this person is above them and unattainable. The author goes to great extremes to keep their love. Even if it means hurting them. No rhyme scheme. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Doom metal/Gothic metal/Death doom metal.
