Audible Beauty: The Tale of Kasios
Author's Note: This is my first (and hopefully last) attempt at a songfic, so bear with me.
A Psalm dedicated to my dear friend Humphrey, who is often my crutch and inspiration
When I first saw you sitting there,
With that look on your face
I wanted to show you something wonderful
But everything seemed so out of place.
So instead of walking over to you,
And making myself look like such a fool,
I toiled away burning the midnight oil
And worked out a song for you to rule.
Now I know that it's nothing special,
I wanted it to reach your very soul
It came from beneath the very bottom of my heart
And from the emptiness that's left in the hole…
So here's a little number just for you
I made it up as I watched you gaze
I hope you enjoy it; please listen to what I say
And allow me to get lost in your face.

A gothic ballad dedicated to Pesmerga, for without his audience I might not make it through those dark times
I'm kissing up to the blackness
I'm hugging close to the seas
I search for you
Get on my knees
Beg for your touch; release me!
Release me!
I hate it here, don't know where to go,
I wanna die, don't wanna know
So release me! Fill me up with your fear!
Release me! Hold me close O my dear!
Cuz' I wanna, yes I wanna, feel the darkness,
Feel the darkness,
And I wanna, yes I wanna, know the pain,
The pain of the night!
So release me!
Whether on devil's or angel's wings!
Release me!
Make me die I'm gonna sing
Release me!
Touch me hold me til' I fall
Release me!
Then ask if I wanna give My All!
I'll concede, I'll let you Have
That One Possession,
Just take and grab!
I want the night, bring on the grave,
I'm not a schoolgirl that you can save!
So release me!
And let me fall where I may!
Release me!
In a puddle I'll stay
And if you wanna, yeah if you wanna,
Have Me again,
All you got to do is… is… is…………

A love sonnet requested by my dear friend Sheena--may your pursuits bear fruit
She's ev'ything that a man could want…
I don't know how to say…
Another beauty for the beast falling down off an inf'nite chasm of eternal pain,
The man by her side says it's far too late; kicks her in the shin…
Licking up her skin feeling ev'ry cell within his grimy grasp,
He doesn't know that she's armed but he swears his love using inches anyway!
It is not right there is something wrong
Down by their house.
It is not right there is something wrong.
Missy Belle Agnes lose your love
Missy Belle Agnes lose your love
Missy Belle Agnes lose your love
Missy Belle Agnes lose your love
Then you'll see, I'm a new man!
Then you'll see, I'm a new man!
Should I hold you in my hands
And squeeze you gently by the fire's side
You'll know that I can do you no wrong!
Because, oh you'll see, I'm a new man!
Oh you'll see, I'm a new man!
Oh you'll see, I'm a new--yes I am!
Man!

Personal thoughts of balladeer Kasios as she watches lovers embrace in Toran Castle
The personal thoughts of balladeer Kasios
As she watches lovers embrace in Toran Castle
The personal viewpoint of one like a siren
Does she tell you anything in the songs that she sings?
Do you know what she knows,
Do you feel how she grows?
Oh the personal opinion of this lady bard
Do they reflect what you already know?
Yet the personal story of songwriter maiden
Will reveal nothing but the truth that we know.
Ask, ask, yield nothing for her,
Ask, ask, she'll sing you a song…
The personal thoughts of balladeer Kasios
Can you see them forming as she plucks on her lyre?
Oh the personal ideals of one mournful lover
Can you tell what she wants by the tear in her eye?

A song for the conclusion
All things must pass
All things must leave
All things must dry up and die up and wither away
All things must pass
All things must fade
All things must end their life mourning by morning til' sunset arrives!
This is the truth
Remember dear children that all things must pass.
The End
