Artists, poets, song-writers? I think one of the best parts of Nightwish for me is how it puts me in an inspirational mood and I just want to DO and BE and CREATE.
This thread is for examples of that.......... and it doesn't have to just be something like art but maybe Nightwish inspired you to do something nice for someone, or to take a walk to the ocean, or anything..........
I have been wanting to write this poem ever since I can remember but was only able to get it into words this weekend:
"Oceansoul"
Deep within twilight
I still hear her calling,
a haunting voice
singing beneath the expanse
It is the stroke of memory
inside my hollow places
Soul of the seas, call to me
I ache for her warmth,
she was the sway
that ebbs and
flows around me
soft as a scent,
smoother than silk
But the tides pull in,
pull away
She is everpresent
but ever
below the surface
Ever cool
In forgotten times,
the lady was more than a capella amaranth
moonbeams played across her azure, reflecting emerald
She was the fragile supernova before collapse
There was a village that she loved,
as she loved all
The village grew into a world
but with it rose the gore
Pale brine frothed down her cheeks
at their cruelty
The sweet sting of her black currant
circled around them
a warning, a pleading
but their malice was a plague
They fed her the souls she could not help but swallow
Once upon a mid-morn hour
the lady's waters ran cold
The damned flesh drifted through her,
blue and empty
The lady's tears
pounded across the land
Her rain brewed into a maelstrom
that devoured her heart
Her rage snuffed the stars,
Her wrath drew down the night
The strike of lightning burned to the ground
what little was left of who she drowned
There was never hate
only justice.
Blackened like the sky,
she fades back into the waves,
sinks into the depths
alone
