Descending Twilight Upon Seas of Boundless Sorrows
Corvus Corone
Burdened weary traveler
Adrift in the twilight
Forever away from home
Floating toward oblivion
Bloodshot and restless eyes
Behold descending skies
A wretched curtain call
The end of a former life
Broken pallid spirit
Reborn in the realm of ghosts
Bearing the scars of life
In this land of apathy
Desperate and frantic cries
Escape from mourning souls
A shameful last resort
To speak breath into the dead
I am the ghost
Who haunts your sleep
I am the one
The mourners grieve
I am the light
That snuffed itself
I am the voice
Just out of reach
I am the tears
You shed in vain
I am the fear
Of loneliness
I am the dread
You feel within
I am the end
Of all that is...
...I am death
Saddened bitter specter
Lost within the night
Among the dying stars
Reaching towards salvation
Fatigued and scarring hands
Caress the empty air
A longing final grasp
The end of what once was saved
Lifeless dull-eyed wanderer
Trapped beneath the waves
Sinking ever lower
Amidst the ghastly seas
Hopeless and starved of dreams
Witness a horrid end
A tragic dreary demise
And the willows mark her grave...
