Capsized in bottoms of heart a soft whisper;
dancing in teary foggy eyes besieged suffering;
bruised, wounded leaving traces impure shapeless;
in paradise eternal; ousted wort for useless sins.
Embrace until eternity to cherish for living free,
in a cage edge to never thought bewitched reasons,
fled already to lead me towards a strange destiny,
as an executioner to prison you as my slave forever.
Waves up & down in gathered clouds of dying sunset,
rising butterfly smiles in visions of angelic pure divine,
in my soul diabolic containing a pyramid of sensuality,
with faineant clumsy sights to look in an earthly eternity.
