CoF inspired poetry/ songs I have written.
'Twas at twilight dim --
B'neath the waves there came a hymn,
A lustrous chant -- daylight's vale
A shadow perch'd atop her sail.
Her bow betray'd by the absence of light
Her tomb ashore in the dead of night
A biting north-easterly gale
A shadow perch'd atop her sail
Her crew now wan by the chill of fright
Her crew now pallid b'neath -- star-light
O'er the wretch'd waters wail
A shadow perch'd atop her sail
Sullen skies and dismal shores
Abed upon the ocean floor -- a tomb forevermore!
No soul returned to tell the tale --
A shadow perch'd atop her sail.
Once a year b'neath the waves
Amongst the tombs inside their graves
They rise to play -- dance and Hail --
A shadow perch'd atop her sail.

Brunswick caught in the midst of a tale
A terrible haunt, a hunt to unveil
A b'heading of sorts -- my headstone confessed
My head had vacat'd -- b'low lay the rest.
I b'thought myself well versed in betrayal
My senses with cunning -- bid me farewell
Had his axe been less keen -- more a jest
Would my fleeting flesh have brought me rest?
'Twas upon Luna's radiant rays -- the reaper
On beams of midnight's lonely keeper
Had I not beseech'd the winds to greet her --
Address her -- lest my head be taken
Her faith in me be shaken --
A murderous intent of unearthly forces
The galloping of his ghastly horses
Elect -- I sleep the endless slumber!
