Ashes To Ashes
Tears dripped from my eyes
Fear gripped my tender hope
Death has stinged my lovely bole
And sealed it in a forgotten hole.
I looked with clear curiosity ;
shadow hooked me with cruel hostility
And my hope zoomed into a misty city
As the dark room swallowed my love without pity.
Flasbacks of our past peering overhauled my screen
And melodies of our former concert ringed in my spirit,
I could not help so i had to screem
As i see my precious person thrown into a pit.
Oh death; cruel shadow
You have put fear into reality
By your sting that spits vanity
You have burnt my golden stick to ashes.
Millions of years beneath the earth;
Only in my dreams he zooms
Just as a bubble he floats and flares
Because ashes has turn to ashes.
