In the cold depths of the universe Amongst the stars Born of tears wept by the astral goddess Children of the cosmos gifted reality Curse of destiny A vessel void of resolve Enshrouded by sorrow A perpetual waste brewed by a Malignant deity Oh holy sun Bask me in your infernal release May thine ashes drift in the cosmos Endlessly

Oh stars above Whilst thou warm my aching bones Cast aside the shadows of ghostly sting Asphyxiating from supernatural cling Snowfall unto aging arbor The evergreen frosted by your gift A benevolence of resonation My soul will rest at their feet Radiant sorrow Luminescent emptiness Wrought by the blade of misery Drippings of hollow death Stained the canvas red Crimson pleas fell silent Beneath the shell of illusion Oh stars above Whilst though dim and fade The frigid void calls my name The yearning for frozen bliss Inescapable tomb Crystals piercing Encasing my wounds Oh stars above Relinquish your might to the cosmic abyss For I rest in an infinite well Where light cannot reach I reject thine rays Your deceit of a prosperous venture The fetid earthen soil Is the only home I trust I banish thee putrid mockery Footsteps trodden On nostalgic whim The frozen winds Conceal memories of a soul once lost Fleeting And dreaming In the darkness Where even the Celestial giants can't breathe In the forest grove Shadows enclosed Free of the vile starry eyes Glaring menacingly Oh how their gaze seizes me Radiant sorrow Luminescent emptiness Wrought by the blade of misery Drippings of hollow death Stained the canvas red Crimson pleas fell silent Beneath the shell of illusion

I wander through the endless night Trespassing on earthen white Remnants of a journey long foregone Amongst the ghosts that share my bed Weights of phantasmal force Dragging my feet through piercing ice An ever flowing stream of pure agony Stained the earth of a tainted trace Regretfully, strides of false belief Through the frigid hell Tormenting me A lonely venture With staggering ghosts surrounding me Choked by their aspirations Gasping for a voice silenced by apparitions The devouring winds of frost Wear down my being My soul yearns to be free In the cold beyond Chained to a physical waste Tortured by mental manipulation Wont thee merciless blight Inflict thine cancerous frostbite Affixed on the lunar glow A vision fading on lustrous aura No desire to see the burning sun Eternal rest before the dawn I seek Incandescent funerary odyssey Stumbling steps of dreary misery Collapsed in the snow Descent to the depths below Now thine eyes rest peacefully

On the eve of melancholic shimmer The moonlit glow of cathartic shivers A loneliness so somber A peaceful gesture of carving winds Etched in my skin The words of a tongue known by many But sung by none The language of wilting fervor Illuminated by lunar insomnia How beautiful A wretched blur The presence of nocturnal haunts linger A crawling, feeding hunger of despair Blackened hands grasp for a host An inescapable cloak In the night where the Shadows roam Accursed blight of obsidian sin Wandering the starry roads Specters masked with a gravely grin Festering the mortal soil Parasitic shade of luminescent cast The fleeting light of evermore Sealing thine eyes forever more

As dusk approaches The fading light Gracing the line of perpetual darkness A mixture so impure The Aurora of a starlit glow Chroma of ensnaring hues A spacial wonder Illuminating the infinite void In a world stained black A bloom of negative flare Opposing portal of pure serendipity In the gleaming meadows Outstretched hands holding a vision of impossible Fruition Offer a taste of bliss To place thy hand in mine I accept your blessed treason Addicted to the comfort of deceit My heart hesitant yet yearning To witness the sight Of personified dreams Eyes sunken in watery grief To have found unimaginable reality Or wisps of fabricated fallacy Transparent unknown As dusk approaches The fading light Gracing the line of perpetual darkness A mixture so impure The Aurora of a starlit glow Chroma of ensnaring hues Entangled by a once ravenous hate The agony of letting go Incandescent flames of anguish Now smoke of a time long ago As dusk approaches The fading light Gracing the line of perpetual darkness A mixture so impure The Aurora of a starlit glow Chroma of ensnaring hues As my conscious fades Inebriated by toxic euphoria The twilight existence of misery and pleasure Wage wars relentlessly A constant gloom engulfing the declining ecstasy A fruitless struggle To be Until the light fades May your treachery Blind me Eternally

Cascading nova creation Paint the cosmic haven Children of the cosmos Born of Stars Dwindling fragments of origin Embedding the woven blanket Of Astral purity Expiring in futile existence Nebulous filth Starfalls amongst the bleak and cold A frosting cosmic glimmer To shed the ways of old The master of illustrious glamour Caregiver to a planet of celestial miracle Beneath the nebulous skies Earthly plunder of natural perfection Seeds of thine goddess flourish Watered by tears of her weary eyes Coddled in the warmth of stars Home to a treacherous kind Ungrateful of the gift of life Festering slime brooding the surface Rejecting the Astral eyes In arrogance they breathe Wasting potential in every wake Poisoning their crystal lakes The once planet of green Now rotting obscene A fight for ephemeral power King of the nightly treasure Enslaving their kin For the right of the obscuring crown A wisk of her immaculate grace The hands of matter and time Shall end all suffering Erasing their bind Trails of stardust fill the sky Diminishing grains of cosmic sand Empyrean diamonds fading to nothing As the solar winds carry them to oblivion credits
