Engulfed by the calefaction
Protruding from the nearby ocean
Such a blessed abhorrence
Disguised in a robe as if it
Were his casual dress.
He speaks of the evil
That smurks at passerbys
A gentle piano calming the disressed, naked lies.
Slowly devestating her as the choir joining
In an uproar, murdering every individual
As they lie in an eucrasiac state.
What are you seeing beyond this hallucination?
Death is a comforter
Yet, you still choose to lie awake?
Break your back, and likely your spirit
To act upon the damage you've inflicted.
Who will hold you as your soul parts and
Melts with the sun
And is never seen again?
If your asking for the gods to descend
Your ignorance will lead to your damnation!
Where the gods are, we are not
In dearest time they will forever depart!
In shallow waters do so many slaves arise
Some say they are dead
But in my own eyes they lead somber lives
Weeping from fear which ascends upon them
A silent scourge is tied to their souls,
And as they look to escape
They come to find,
That in death they can still not die.
So fast asleep and in constant prayer
Each lives colliseum becomes a grave courtyard
Each man approaching the judge for grace
Yet, eternally sentenced for life
The vicious dogs they are, chasing each
Escapist through the damning halls
Always raining blood as primordial as
The gods of time.
There is no victory.
If your asking for the gods to descend
Your ignorance will lead to your damnation!
Where the gods are, we are not
In dearest time they will forever depart!
Where do I exist?
A shallow grave is now my compass
Entombed in somber ashes of Earth
The gods have locked me to a stake
I now learn something
I have no where to go
Perhaps, I am just asleep?

Author notes
This is pretty metephorical. I tried to challenge my word usage by finding new words to use. I like compexity and simplicity at the same time when I write. I hope to be able to turn this into a song at some point. Hope you enjoy it.
