Wild Beasts At Play

where shadows devour twilight there are wild beasts at play they dwell in their aphotic world and we are two of the same Your eyes, their amber burn with embers heavy like the stars bear weight to rest upon my feeble heart what a burden and what a burden to have a taste for it to be ripped away like the light of day while by natures chords the sky is spun like a cosmic gyre your allure emanates pain like a wild fire your cries howl the night your hide as black as it's affliction our dark sunken minds we are wild beasts at play
