Astray In Eternal Night

Woeful wraith, obscured in veils of stalking night

Once again, reliving the final fragments of a bygone

dream

Too long, you have languished in this desolate place

Perdition of your soul, suffer now forevermore

With a glance that turned my heart'- blood to frost

She descended each stair with unearthly grace

The dust-ridden scent of abandoned tombs, like perfume

Awakened by an unrevealed longing, perhaps to live again

Free from the pains of mortality, the vast unknown

The frail dreams of life buried deep beneath the

confinements of earth

Sleep again, restless Eidolon

Return to non-existence, tranquillity in the silence of

coffins

Your eyes of misted glass

Mesmerise and who but I drawn forward

Lost in a reverie of tears

With a voice long forsaken

A promise of eternal bliss was spoken

Turning away from that aura of coldest intent

For I saw nothingness: A blackest chasm of despair

And yet I still covet thee
