Advesperascit

By alesana

Meet me in the forst of shadows
The dark enclosure which grips my heart
Searing my mind, burning my bones
Driving away hope and elation
A world in grey - grey of all colors
Shades dull and dim in hue
Step beside me into the palace
Sit on the throne of spoiled dreams
With me watch the skies
Broiling clouds ensnared in the fog of desire
Snarling wild as a beast
Fanged as the creatures below
Unearthly shadows coiled like serpents
Reigning like gods of the warring skies
Preparing for a battle
Over my mortal soul.
