Abandoned by Light - Desolation

Desolation


The light of the black candle flickers
Casting a growing shadow across the way
Illuminating dead eyes, crystallised
Shimmering in the tears forming in ice

Unhallowed vastlands, formed by memory
Skeletal forests, reaching into the fog
A world of desolation forming inside the frame
Reaching ever outward, spreading its wings

Jaded eyes and melancholic thoughts
Growing ever colder, dejected and lifeless
The hands reach forward, clutching the fog
Seeping from the vessel, empty and unformed

The black candle goes out, wispy smoke rises
Desolation moves ever forward, spreading
The vessel falls to its knees, dust trailing beneath
The wings envelop the frame, the cycle complete
