Laying in the garden Where our pedicels were reaped Frontal lobe resigning As I’m heading in to deep I can’t feel you In this sleep And I’m getting stale Geranium Collision Skin i ruptured by these thorns Absent is the scent That granted wings for you to stroll I need you to feel whole Cause we were once entwined I can’t put i out my mind Put it out your mind Spare me for the time Of carving out this restless heart And Once again we’ll be apart Put it out your mind Lets forget the time Let me keep your restless heart And we will never be apart The surface of this slumber Weaved in vividly on your lips Sink your comfort closer Kiss me out of this abyss There’s a lot that I would miss Without your sharing eyes Luscious lover lift me Up above a steady grave Untamed pure connection Is the only thing I crave That’s exactly what you gave Once again entwined I Cant put it out my mind Put it out your mind Spare me for the time Of carving out this restless heart And Once again we’ll be apart Put it out your mind Lets forget the time Let me keep your restless heart And we will never be apart Put it out your mind

She came to me on a moonless night She came to me in a restless fight Her mortal skin was so pale and thin Her silver veins like contrails in the sky She came to me after years of mourn Tongue untangled didn’t know what was wrong Her steps made the lightbulb flicker like a candle Spine so straight, not a hair was mangled She came to me and stopped the clock in the kitchen Craving flesh, claimed her stomach was itching Her once blue eyes was so dark and disfigured Her looming laugh, was tearing at the plaster She came to me, my Euridice Came back to me, How could this be? Here I lie in my misery rags As my boot lost grip from the blood on the tracks This was all I asked for A sign of relief This was all I prayed for An end to my grief This was all I asked for A sign of relief This was all I prayed for An end to my grief She came to me But she came to late She came to hit me like bucket of ice She came to hit me with my virtues and vice Her ten feet poem was about to catch fire As my tea-light brain embellished the building She screamed at me like the son of Tantalus The roar fought the flame as it was breaching my ballast My scars aligned and out erupted the traumas Flash into the night with the queen of the tides This was all I asked for A sign of relief This was all I prayed for An end to my grief This was all I asked for A sign of relief This was all I prayed for An end to my grief She came to me But she came to late

Bygone Days 03:29
No it ain’t It ain’t how it use to be No it ain’t It ain’t how it use to be Cause there ain’t no tree’s standing tall And there ain’t no vines on the wall No it ain’t It ain’t how it use to be No it ain’t It ain’t like the bygone days Cause their ain’t no rain forgiving clouds And their ain’t no sheep left to count No it ain’t It ain’t how it use to be No it ain’t It ain’t like the bygone days The key to the steeple Went down the Well The reverend refuses To claim the bell Cause their Ain’t no youth left to commune Every sprout unwilling to bloom No it ain’t It ain’t how it use to be No it ain’t It ain’t like the bygone days

I went to your grave today All covered in lavenders My skull is a fishbowl With a great pike stretching its jaws I went to your grave today An unkindness of Murders pierced the haze My body’s on the skewer Drenched in rain or blood I went to your tomb this night You were cutting your hair With a butchers knife You frowned at my entrance Then tears began to sprout I went down your tomb this night The most glorious fiend Was at your side He had a mouth full of wishes And a breath of genocide I looked into your eyes Their colours I could not recognise You were ready for the closing line When the curtains cut the scene I looked into your eyes The chamber blackened And I heard you scream and fight Always drowning in this reverie How can I make amends I went to your grave today Blooming lilies as the sun went out to play I saw the sparrows returning But I could not reach your name I went to your grave today How could it ever even out my long-lost faith My grief Is an Altar Devouring death itself

Are you afraid Narcis Have you felt it Shiver down your spine This world is full of death Have you felt it Shiver down your spine Are you afraid Narcis And have you felt it Sitting on every wicket Standing behind every tree your walls and bridges sinks into the sands of time Build your chapels and churches He’s gazing through the windows laughing Writing every detail Every name is mentioned, every step is measured Are you afraid Narcis Have you felt it Shiver down your spine This world is full of death Have you felt it Shiver down your spine Are you afraid Narcis And have you felt it Sing all your prayers Burn your candles and bind your books Are fasting, dearest? With no sleep under your eyes, he will help you on your trial Rip you to the bone Out on the field the grim is marching Hurry now but watch your bones They moan for separation They will not lift us anymore

These gloomy thoughts Are crawling around on the ceiling Hatching like spiders And they’re feeding on there own kind Till fittest hang down As a long legged ventriloquist Reaching for its puppet Stealing every face Once there’s an opening outside Anxiety commence Once there is nothing left inside But a pond of confusion Drowning in delusion But the sky is always blue Above the clouds

Remember the time Stuck in the hay Your silky hair The wind swept away And it took you on As a firstborn As a monarch to a throne with a flame so Dull And cold So you grew old But your girly tears Was to heavy to bear Hiding yourself on a shelf In a cigarette case With ashes from umbrellas Who couldn’t stand the rain And here it is again Pouring my thoughts About a girl I knew Who could open every door And once she did She met the abyss Her fate didn’t end In a drowning accident It was no coincidence That her coffin was swept No body, no closure At first I wept But then I remembered the time Stuck in the hay You told me the wind Would put you on display And when I looked outside A blaze of light The moon was an ace Carrying your face I was scarred and relieved Cause I knew what I’ve seen Would stay inside My cigarette case Dearest I know That you’ve got no time For a Puzzled young man Lost to the world But if you could speak I just wanna know I just wanna know If I should let go Dearest I know You’re lost to the tide I’m lost to the world I just wanna know It’s true that I am A puzzled young man But people round here Think I’m not thinking clear My childhood eyes So faded and worn My conscious diluted By bottomless mourn That what they think As they pay for my drink As their faulty smiles Gets flushed down the sink Cause it’s them who can’t see Pity yourself not me Your blind and your chained To a stone so restrained All your starlight addicts And cumulus fanatics Measuring the sky With a beam in your eye Just look into Her florescent heart Man that stuff Oughta tear you apart Cause she’s so far away So outta reach Successfully made A mortal breach So every convo I have Is About bringing her back But they all tell me It’s a grim and blind track. So now i’m at the door As many times before Hoping for an opening That wont leave me sore I can’t live with a ghost Inside of my head But I can’t just let go And declare you dead Dearest I know That you’ve got no time For a puzzled young man Lost to the world But if you could speak I just wanna know I just wanna know If I should let go Darling I know You’re lost to the tide I’m lost to the world I just wanna know

Autumn 04:43
Autumn You got bite marks from the devil Filling my bones with gravel But your heart is in the falling leaves And your mind is wide Like the blue skies of September Autumn Your withering smoker lungs Are sweeping of the carcass road But your love is in the candle lights And your lust is with Your rainy gown of amber Turn to me but never leave My shivering thoughts Nocturnal Turn to me but never let The ash and the dust devour Autumn You enigma Autumn You spiderweb Autumn Always soon to be divorced Always howling back the ghost But your memories Are lycopodium dreams And your infinite tap Keeps fuelling up the future Autumn Your catacomb Awaits Strangling every torch But deep down in the depths of it all There’s a peace in the dark That we all somehow must fall to Turn to me but never leave My shivering thoughts Nocturnal Turn to me but never let The ash and the dust devour Turn to me but never leave My shivering thoughts Nocturnal Turn to me but never let The ash and the dust devour Autumn You enigma Autumn You spiderweb Turn to me and never leave We’re almost there Yet so unclear Why we keep stubling down Eternally, Nocturnally Leave me a sign If you do leave me behind
