Demolition Lovers [Kyrielle]

by The Queen of Spades   Nov 19, 2007


We are that which will consume you
Eclipse the innocence that you hold true
In a masochistic land we reign
We are strengthened by your pain

We are the leaders of your sorrow
Kill today and burn tomorrow
Your life and soul we can restrain
We are strengthened by your pain

We are kings and queens of all
Our thrones revered when you fall
Blood tastes sweeter of those slain
We are strengthened by your pain

We are that which will destroy you
An evil concoction we start to brew
Until your mind no longer sane
We are strengthened by your pain

A Kyrielle is a French form of rhyming poetry written in quatrains (a stanza consisting of 4 lines),
and each quatrain contains a repeating line or phrase as a refrain (usually appearing as the last
line of each stanza). Each line within the poem consists of only eight syllables. There is no limit
to the amount of stanzas a Kyrielle may have, but three is considered the accepted minimum.

rhyme scheme: aabB, ccbB, ddbB, with B (in this case I added eebB)
