Dark Incense

Dark Incense 
Black cypress 
Wood burning incense 
Aroma scented lavender 
Humbled grounds 
Growing into the old 
Wisdom in a safety deposit box 
Jet black ghost flowers 
Yesterday's vaporist 
Roots growth dreary 
Solitude slumber day 
With dark incense 
Ponder twilight 
Meaning of life sinking 
Enter into the vortex of emptiness 
Dust and bones 
Can’t live forever 
Dark clouds Ravens fly 
Death bed dying 
Cemeteries awaits 
End of the old mans journey 
Engraved tombstones 
Through silent whispers 
Remember me no more 
Covered in a vail 
Caged beneath in bleak loneliness
