A Bitter draught
by Tammy Darby
I drank the bitter draught of that which they call affection
And spewed it from my mouth in distaste
Finding it lacking in truthfulness and loyalty
And a propensity for laying the soul to waste
Again, I brought the crystal glass to my lips
Once more, spew it from my mouth
I found no sweetness in a mixture of false emotions
Of constant lies and doubt

by Tammy Darby
My thirst for revenge was so great
The earth trembled in fright
And in my unbounded fury
Blinded the sun itself
And flung the moon from the sky
The stars fled from their cluster’s sparkling ever so bright
The universe conceded, vanquished, cowered and cried
My anger was vehement
HeavIng forth oceans from their beds

On the wings of a Black Raven.
by Tammy Darby
Turn yourself from my rage
As surely as I speak it will destroy you
Shield yourself from my glaring glance
As it is a slow but indubitable poison
There is no mercy to be found
In this unforgiving dead heart
No pity present in the chilled organ
No light penetrates the folds of the dark

Fairies and Pixies
by Tammy Darby
Fairies are not composed of all beauty and ethereal gossamer wings
That live in dark hidden glens and sing bewitching songs
It is whispered by those brave enough to roam mythical forests
You can often hear fluttering sounds
and chanting until the sunrise, bright and gold
I was said by the Gervase of Tilbury
They first resided in England its territory being large
Flew across the channel and settled quite nicely in Killarney
Upon hearing the legends of the splendid Irish lands

by Tammy Darby
Unseen I watched her stop eating and sleeping, broken she wasted away while her very being crumbled with despair and loss. She became gaunt, almost skeletal, withdrawn shutting out the world. Lost in a maze of confusion, trapped between loyalty and betrayal, after all, he had done, she still loved him. He was neither honorable or worthy.
Pitying her and her behalf I filled his dreams with sobs and cries of suffering while sprinkling his soul with the light touch of paranoia, and cursed his heart. I called upon him in the darkest hour of the night, so years turned into months, months into days, and minutes became seconds.
Trembling he meekly asked my name. Emotionless and unmoved I remained in the shadows of his mind said nothing, and stared at him without speaking. Once again, his voice tainted with fear and hope for a reprieve, he asked me, ‘what is your name?
I smiled and in my softest voice whispered in his ear,
'Death.'
