Requiem
A disenchanted mind, scattered, like autumn leaves swirling
A vagueness of memory; the doors locked to a mystery
Dreams forever lost in a permanent dusk
A knowledge extinguished, as the fires we worshipped dismember
An amputation of the grief, like a mutilated immortality
Consummating those captive images of your face
A solitude we inhale so slowly; breathing in the quiet night air
The wind swirling to clench your indiscretions
Dislocating an embrace of your affinity
A comfort in a bed of thorns, ready to rip the skin a flesh
An abated prolonging for the palpitations in your touch
Mutilated ripples opening to an unknown eternity
Free from sin...
Requiem?
