A breach beyond the cloak of midnight
A solitary sun
A chaos in a halo
A void consuming light and dark
A mind enraptured in the solitude
A memory of pain
Fading into entropy
Awash upon the shores like rain
The swirling heart of memory
Is an open wound
And I beneath the stars
Here in my open tomb remain
The flowers wilt
And scatter over my grave
As the sun of midnight fades away again
My petition calls the world forth to the dawn
I cut away the bandage and the cloth
In a memory beholden to the clots
A witness to the end
Awakened sleep
Yet still I dream
Awakened sleep
Yet still I breath
What lies beyond
What lifts our strength to the sun
Recollect
What lies beyond
What brings us up from the mud
Recollect
