A dying embrace...

By Spiritus_Frumenti

The night is weeping
and the stars have burned away
Now that I feel lonelier
than I have ever been

So sombre is my emptiness
filling the world with silence
Breathing only through sobs
When in the midst of all this suffering
all I want to do is love

So solemn is my grief
Turning the wind into whispers
The oceans into dreams
As I pray to the sky
the most impossible things

So deeply I mourn
That there is no place
distant enough I could ever be
than right here
Nothing more tender than those moments
where life ends in my mind
Drawing infinity out of an instance
Burying the heavens with me
if I had a chance...

    i have read you a couple times since joining... i feel conected to your pieces, maybe its because your lingo is somewhat parrallel. reminds me of a swimming dream... oceanic, ambient, somewhat lost, a very Duresc style that i adore. this is amazing.
