Cloistered in walls of my detestation Drifting away from all that life bestows I dream of lands of desolation Where poisoned trees of nonexistence grow Crowds of ghosts walk to the nethervoid Hollow eyes. The winding sheets of white They pass through walls of my dismal chamber Morbid horde. They call me into night Years of aloofness. The damage is done Fortress I built is flooded with waste Distant refulgence of depthless decline Casting a glow on my measly face Closer to void All inner temples Now desecrated And never will be cleared Nothing to wait for The journey will be endless Now I can see This way towards the end Twilight of soul. Eclipse of my mind I am beyond the pale of the mortal world Will-o'-the-wisp is my only guide Emptiness calls. It is the best reward This heavy lid of my vacant coffin Looks like a door. It’s time to turn the knob I’m not surprised, there is no bottom There are the stairs leading to the dark Years of aloofness. The damage is done Fortress I built is flooded with waste Distant refulgence of depthless decline Casting a glow on my measly face Men must endure their going, their death The serpent of time is touching my skin Its leaden body obstructs my breath Small voice of anguish sounds from within
