the grave


As I looked at the grave
Where You lie awake
Passed the source of ever dark
With Your never ending carks

The cold breeze cut like a dagger
And Your soul roamed like a beggar
Looking for a place to rest
From the ethereal nest

The deep dark embraced You
Like a leaf caresses a drop of dew
The pain in You is eternal
Passed on from the kernel

Your soul bore You away
Just as mine did today
The emptiness is haunting me
Yet I came to bleed

Forever I am damned, I'm scared
Because no one ever cared
I'm now just a ghost
Yet I go for a prose
