|
Lie in endless wait behind some cold shadow for a stream of stars that have long since died. |
|
Their burnt cinders fall upon my heaped corpse and seep into my open pores. |
|
With the deadened silence of my exiled mind shattered a torturous word crawled to the darkest cavern of my |
|
Being where a dim glow resonated from the eyes of my dead dream and tore a hole in my lachrymal sleep. |
|
'Twas as if I had motioned the skies to part, and a piece of heaven to tumble past my hungry eyes when a |
|
Single lonely drop fell to the inviting earth and buried unending furrows to carve me open. |
|
An absurd drop of pain within such a vast ocean of disease |
|
Presented a dismal glimmer of searing bliss that passedin such a blinking moment |
|
That it might have slipped unnoticed but for the piercing cries in my heart |
|
The dismal moments have now passed to flounder between the sea |
|
And disease and lay waste to your bubbling pores. |
|
The soft murmurs poured forgiving |
|
And with envious assault laid waste my breath |
|
In fleeting moments of joy a knock betrayed the vigilant ear and drowned in vastness. |
|
You see through the dream, behind the vacant smile of the dead |
|
And cut the seams, that held together my breath |
|
Lifeless I lie, thoughts tear my mind and you fly |
|
Your sharpened breath, echoes these halls for life |
|
Slip the warm knife through my searing flesh |
|
Nefarious agony slips inside my smile |
|
As the swallow lands and bleeds, to suck the light and with it weave, dark veils of strangling gloom to cover |
|
This silent room. |
|
A fragment of shuddering light appeared and began to bite at the air, so thick with deceit, that all stood |
|
Still, all was weak |
|
To echo through your soft, murmurous heart |
|
And pierce your every word. |
|
The dreaming veil strangles your shortening breath |
|
As oceans of pain wash through your open veins and pour to the inviting earth. |
|
To leave not a trace of those moments |
|
That filled the empty halls and cold |
|
Would be to close the shutters on the day (and to dream behind a veil). |
|
The word that crawled around inside falls away |
