Tempest Of

My life once depended on a friendly turn of fate

I hung my lonely lover, with a noose named heavens gate

Your life is menial to me, my friend, my ugly truth

swinging face down from the sunshine

into the darkness I consume

so I send a swarm of blackness

laced with strobes of soundless plea

please know your time is dated

until the day I set you free.
