Tiamat
A death confirmed by falling stars
I open my eyes with every scar
White fire compelled to hold my sight
The ice in my heart repels the light
This scene beyond what I can speak
A passionate power that leaves me weak
More silence spilling from my lips
Reciting the lie that I exist
A flash of rainbow through the night
A planet beyond has pierced the sky
I reach to hold it in my hands
The darkness now shatters above the land
All colours I have never seen
The sensation of feeling without being
Such darkness swirling radiant thought
Creation destroying the natural laws
A death reversed beyond my dreams
Tiamat speaking of my disease
White oceans frozen by my soul
Reconnecting the sky to make me whole
