actually, u reminded me of what i wanted my sig to b but forgot. ty jules.
The Temple
You help me build the temple.
You help me tear it down.
And out of all this rubble.
You cannot be found.
I thought I saw you standing
Outside the tribute line
I know I heard you whisper,
What's yours was never mine.
I try to tell myself that
I love you even so
But now your heart is black
and we're standing oh so still.
I wish I could decipher
What's real and what is not.
'Cause all this mingles together
and I'm left with only sand.
Now life is pouring through my grasp
and I can't scoop it all up
It's only bits of glass
But I guess it all adds up.
Death
Black clouds reign over me
And consecrate my apathy
Thick drops pour onto my face
As I fight to leave this awful place
Death rears its ugly head
Reminds me that someday we all we be dead.
Life is fragile, life is sweet
Life is gentile, and ever we seek
To become like the others
Who want to be like us
To alienate our mothers
Who wish to comfort us
Death is nothing, death is kind
It's a way to leave this all behind
But what is death and how do we know
Exactly where our loved ones go?
Must we fight every day
To find ourselves, to be this way
Must we struggle with our hearts
To find the path which never parts?
Or does this life mean nothing at all
And death is just the other side
Of a very thin wall?
Into the night lies death on black wings
soaring the sky, neither queens nor kings
Burning the mind like lava on rock
searing the heart to a melted stone block
Calling for you, just one step ahead
always awaiting 'neath your bed
Screaming macabre thoughts behind glass
waiting for you to slide in your task
ice like hands grab for your arms
tearing you down with their bitter cold claws
struggle and suffer, your life's at an end
and always the same, again and again
scream and kick, try as you might
death on black wings rules your night
As for your live steel fighting, YOU'RE CRAZY!!! LOL

We're a ren faire guild that does live steel fighting in full armor. Quite a few of us are also fire performers.
Edit: We also go to pirate faires, Burning Man, and various types of events. Most Fridays we have "Fire Fridays" where we get together, spin/breathe fire, eat, drink, smoke (or vape in my case), and have a generally good time. We're having one tonight in Mira Mesa. It's an open event for anyone interested.
