My forbidden desire
Shone deeply within mine eyes,
Archaic visions awakened
Hidden beneath forgotten memories..
Seemingly endless phantoms
Parading
Devilish apparitions,
Dance amidst the folly
Of my sleeping drama.
I hear their cries
Bathing in moonlight..
This lascivious breed I scorn
My raven skies embellished
With traces of bloodless depravity.
I speak of celestial adoration
Divine lamentation..
And tears of infinite mourning..
My utopia do I cover
And hate being my truest form of love.
My nemesis unmasked
My own face do I see..
Torn in silence..
I have seen the majestic beauty
Of darkened landscapes and ivory gates.
O what fools can they not see I am lost
Endless battles they fight for my soul!
No pity, no comfort do I now ask..
Let me suffer alone in my own misery..
My children shall never abandon me..
Poor souls can they not see they are mine,
A dying rose do I now give to each of them
An eternity of my love and death..
Ornamental disgrace as they envision
Their dying savior before me
As his children to forever become mine.
Ashen mortality,
A faceless entity within them..
How is it that I feel
Their saddened wishes?
Time passes.. dreams die..
And I silently kiss away their lives..
