My existence fading,

 your love decomposing,

 my failure just a remembrance,

 your mercy undeserved.

 Desperation forthcoming

 our final relief,

 insignificance in nothingness,

 our destiny remains unfulfilled.

 But strength still goes out from your thorns,

 and from your abysses the sound of music.

 Your shadows lie on my heart like roses,

 and your nights are like strong wine.
