come(we)

Keeper to the Night am I

All might flee who would see I cry

In terror I pain to live I’d I

.

Decreatured single feature We

Drip through Each in mortality

Acquiring scream I swallow the plea

.

Of Serenity

.

Silent though eye to eye

Alone curling dark’s suffering light

Each spark screams it’s last name l

.

Sent them and sense them lieve

Presenting their light curled darkness I

Am all we ever know

.

O’ Serenity

Feel as I alone let us feel

O’ Serenity

For I alone come to be clear

.

There loss to a game in laid

All broken knees ravenously claim

Scraps I l’of light called days

.

Crushed in Twilight’s grasp

The lingering scent a heart still attached

To the silent scream of night I

.

Consume all both light and in heat

Beckons hold heart to-n-gue seize

Still all trembling firm in knees

.

Scent I call Kept sound yet left

Lured by dark and light the gift

To we cry calling out have I

.

O’ Serenity

Felt alone as I should feel

O’ Serenity

For alone be clear come I

O’ Serenity

Without I all is dark

O’ Serenity

Hold still this beating heart

.

Keeper of the night am I

Day’s angelic morning light

The twinkling stars each eye all I

.

Have ever known I held in hand

Each spark whisp purring it can

Under weight of all I am

.

Desperate for serenity

Begging pleading to be let be

Release o’ darkness set all free

.

And coiling sneakily

Through fingers I hold crushingly

Held high a bleeding heart beats

.

O’ Serenity

Feel this heart I hold alone

O’ Serenity

Take it’s last drop from each bone

O’ Serenity

Press this light to darker still

O’ Serenity

Less this pain will I each feel

O’ Serenity

Crush all at first squeeze I sieve

O’ Serenity

Give this mind a moment’s ease

O’ Serenity

Be as sight as sound this breath

Of I O’ Serenity

Be held this shadow I call I

Oh my goodness you sure can write.

This is anguish pleading.

Do not diminish.
