Serene lunar ocean recedes from view

A distant fog consumes

Desert turned tundra

Tides fall with the time

Epitaphs written in sand

Our lives crash with the tides

Forever a deified moon

Final hours lost in a starless sky

Beings unknown lurking

Familiar faces hug their skin

Behind those eyes lurk eternity

Beyond eternity is our future

A world beyond grief awaits its end

Lives that are passed

Keep us haunted by our past

Unease weaves through my bones

Death is no longer feared

No longer a burden

Moon descending

Dead oceans fill my eyes

Creation now a myth

The knees of giants falter

Bending to the weight of the neverending sky

Trapped under seas of dirt

Water seeps in

Suffocation inevitable

My eyes wide open

My sight is empty

Blood trickles from my mouth

And joins with the cold earth.
