Wings ablaze
Scorching the air with the ground in my sights
Earth is razed
No hope left carry me forth
The crash is imminent
I descend through the blizzards and blistering snow
Still I’m not there
I must hurry, for there’s fire below
They’re gaining on us
They’re gaining on us
My eyes straight (they’re gaining on us)
Is this fate (they’re gaining on us)
With blood streaming
Rivers of life flying towards the sky
Vision fading now
My balance… leaving me
My fingers frozen
I won’t feel your face again
A price I’m willing to pay
I look toward thee, Alphard
I’ll never see daylight
But I’ve seen enough
I’ve singed the last whisper
You can’t reach me now
I’ll never see daylight
But I’ve seen enough
They’re gaining on us
They’re gaining on us
My gaze fixed (on a dimming sky)
Our wings clipped (never to fly)
…Again

Winds, frigid rain, accents to my soul
Each arrow’s knowledge gained, regardless what they stole
The sights I’ve seen
The cries I’ve heard
The torment witnessed
The peace I’ve earned… can never be yours
The years deceive us, and make us forget
Our vibrant past, and solemn regret
The leaves are falling, their song I must heed
The sages speak, their knowledge need
And as their arrows seek ground
My flesh embraces every piercing round
I am finally set free
Keep close… my memory
Winds, frigid rain, accents to my soul
Each arrow’s knowledge gained, regardless what they stole
The sights I’ve seen
The cries I’ve heard
The torment witnessed
The peace I’ve earned… can never be yours

Idiopathic Despair

Under a frozen star, taken far from their reach
The final approach begins, focused on closing the breach
The gentle voice of a stoic brook quietly calling me close
The welcoming waters shimmer, hiding faces of whispering ghosts
Of cries below
There’s little I know
But I’ll find your secrets, your coveted glow
Your sun may rise again but I’ve been breathing on borrowed time
There is no place for angels
In this silent heaven of mine
Authors
Of aquatic graves
Sleeping
Deep beneath the waves
Tell me
What I must seek
Guide me
Your words I will speak
It seems just a moment ago, my gaze was lost in a sea of stars
My spirit calm, my eyes transfixed on the shining prophets afar
I could not see you coming, though I knew that you exist
Collapsed on my knees, I stare at the ground, engulfed by this fathomless mist
Of songs above
Not much I know of
I don’t seek your secrets, your coveted love
Your sun may rise again but I’ve been breathing on borrowed time
There is no place for angels
In this silent heaven of mine
Authors
From ethereal graves
Soaring
High above the waves
Teach me
To master this curse
Guide me
Through this hell I traverse
