Memorials Pedal

Rank me in the dimmest of lights
sweet salvation deliver me into his bliss
mark my heart with the eternal desire to be one of them
fitting in the most exposed weeds
filter my soul and make me believe
i can wake up tomorrow and he will be there
bittersweet oblivion, mothers milk
taste each tear, each foreign virtue
let them fall like rain and dampen my sheets
virgin orchid climb higher into the clouds
farther away from the fields of forever
give birth into the now
leap freely with your true stag
welcome me forest and dance into my minds eye
blinking eye can wonder what it must 
water it, creation... again play on 
this flower is wilting
its sour and unforgiven
turning faster in the wind
