Kismet

Eternally rich patterns marking the score
Painted with blood from those we adore
A carpet stretching, hiding what's beneath
From afar they are dreams singing joyously
Nightmares in hiding with threads of screams
Smooth surfaces emulated with coarse woven skeins
Binding and tearing like a roses' rogue thorns
Piercing flesh and celebrating the victory
Skin will dry and the dead eyes are dilating
Tread carefully, for all the demons are waiting.
