The flowing ice upon the river

Wasted away, for no one to call again

So too did your breath cease

And gently blew away to an idea

Shadows, collide to end

Debase, the garden’s fruit

Shallow, the form will come

The first call, your heart refused

We searched, the burnt awaken

To kiss, the green remains

Blessed forgotten wisdom

That yields forgotten cruelty

Hidden fear of empathy

Bears pity’s lurid fate

Ghostly connect to terrible eyes

Disconnect my body from the fear

Bleeding tears no other can ignore

I softly give way to my

Dogs, devouring the night

Your shallow breath it fades

The anger and regret

Let us begin

Rip me from my sleep

With your silence

We only stir

Out to nothing

Every altar

And every grave

Made victims of
