Favor

A conjunction of interests fills the hallow cries of the pleading
Dissonant voices squall the eerie tendrils of agony as if the windswept heath adjourns its 
decay

Degenerate efforts subdue the coexistence of love and hate
Concupiscence unsheathes its weary self and cascades into the malevolent maelstrom 

But all is silent in my asylum of thoughts
Shrieks never seemed as beautiful as the dawn disappears

Lethargic moans jolt my consciousness
Light has never been so bright except in the midst of darkness

It was the best dream I ever had
The problem was; it was only a dream
