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 hath 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 d**h 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 pa**es... dreams die... And I silently kiss away their lives
