Graves On a Deathless Sin

Fleeing from the place that once was called home

Desperately I raise my head to the dome

Of the sky fouled with lurid moonlight

A lunar disk glints for an instant white

Down the dark dell they can’t foresee

The secrete forest stands waiting for me

Sylvatic shades invoke me again

Enthralled by a promise of impending rain

Foliage shelters me

And finally I cloister myself in the twilight cathedral

On this ground I wrote your name so many times

That I forgot my own

Come to me, come to me, come to me

You are the gate, I am the key

Beware of him who entered your heart

For he envenomed your soul, inebriated your mind

He is the enemy and must be

Exiled

I enter an unseen circle once more

Raving to feel you like never before

Swayed by a soft and soundless breeze

Whispering herbs evoke impious memories

And when rain drops conflow with my tears

In front of me a black vision appears

Darkness casts her veil over us…

Invade my flesh and dwell in me

Every touch is a wound I long for

The weeping firmament pours its waters into

Our ever thirsting mouths

And we sink in the darkness

In the blazing sea where you drain my inhale dry

Although deliriously I try to hold you close

You evanesce and through my fingers slip

Then take my heart - I rip it now for you - a bleeding rose

But still locked is a garden of eternal sleep
