Caamora

My soul burns down by darkest flame
Molten ruin's left of me
My heart aches to the tides of sea
As purity's all I can name

I claim it as my own right here
For all that I could love or fear
Has neared the brink of emptiness
Become one, interlinked with this

Amiss, the thought of what was fate
To lose the hope of what might be
These are the notes that resonate
Like prisms in a sunset sea

To me, the sunlight fades to darkness
All light dies down with the day
Here, within, what words can't say
Here, this flame is the abyss
