Terminal

Death, thy servant is at my door
he has crossed the unknown sea
and brought thy call to my home

The night is dark my heart is fearful
yet I will take up the lamp and open my gates
and bow to him my welcome

squander away the days in denial
now thy mirror pulls away the veil
never ready for the pennies for my eyes
the grasping much to strong
plunder along the hedonistic trails
now my prayers are to no avail
across the unknown sea we set sail
over deaths horizon I have gone

The fading light turning colours grey
yesterday now seems a lifetime away...

It is thy messenger who stands at my door
I will worship him with folded hands and with my tears
I will worship him placing at his feet the treasure of my heart
he will go back with his errand done leaving a dark shadow

rigor-mortis the pallor sets in
this empty coil yet i only begin
to glimpse the secret & behold
yet the grasping still to strong
wonder astray in a disembodied state
as past memories and thoughts replay
magnify the pain given seven fold
over deaths horizon I have gone

The fading light turning colours grey
yesterday now seems a lifetime away...

And in my desolate home
only my forlorn self will remain

close window
