Halo

Before I am reposed at last, weave me a crown of flowers 
So for when I pass death's threshold, I might carry life
For the rotting halo I wear might turn me into an angel  
And my decomposing body to have a companion

Waves

Once a naive child 
Sought after the sea
To feel as vivid blue 
As the depths of it

Ventured in too far 
Got swallowed by a wave
Trapped into the waters
Dissolving into them

Hence why I have no body
No place to keep my soul 
Passed on all my sorrows 
To waves crashing on the shore

Oceans

The confines of my flesh erode my soul 
My ribcage wages war on my heart
I wish to tear myself apart from this prison of rotting bones 
As only then should I taste this decaying world's sweetness

I long for the life of the oceans
All-seeing, all-consuming forces of nature 
Whose fury submerges cities in its ferocity 
Their smooth bodies undestroyable divine to our wretched forms

The fury in my body was molded for a divine force
My sorrows made only for the inanimate to bear
Loose waves that belong to the oceans
Apathy of the waters is for I took their care
