the banshee

she wails to your soul,
the comming of pain,
the black fairy appears,
voice of the undead in the darkness,
waiking through my mind,
pierceing my inner most shell,
bringing the death of you,
pure heart turns black,
i slowly open my eyes,
the nightmare begins,
let me see white,
my soul covers my heart in white,
to stop the rot,
saving it in times of darkness,
the shield of protection,
in black its bound to roam this earth.
forever more,
my soul passes the graveyard of life,
passing through fairyland,
colours a blur,
my heart begins to beat,
searching with the eyes of the undead,
my body numb with pain,
a dusting of light appears,
angel rays appear through the cracks,
darkhorse detects the vampires grave,
leaches sucking whats left,
crossing the undead hell a zombie,
i feel my pulse,
theres hope,
darkhorse rears his front legs,
slowly standing on his feet,
the mood changes,
the banshee heads straight to hell,
with the coachman of death on her tail,
rattling passed two ivory coloured headless,
horses,
leading the carriage straight to hell,
dumping the darkness into a bottomless pit,
locked away in the dungeons,
no more to see light,
i found you love,
dark becomes light,
colours everwhere,
my eyes wide open,
my hands outstretched,
raising them high to the heavens,
no more the fool,
the banshee buried deep,
in protection of my heart,
in the hope she wails no more,
far away a distant thought,
some say she lives in the pain ,
not heavens light ,
barred to the darkness,
were she never sleeps

Hi Darkhorse

the bannshe

A warning...of a death... in folklore it is said to follow the O..AND THE MAC,

I myself have heard her wail once when I was sixteen.. while I was in the company of my late Mother... A Haunting frighting cry...

A friend of my mothers died that night...his name was Donal O Donoghue

Fact...not fiction.

Loved your poem

Thank you for sharing
