I wait in shadow,
Morbid to me,
Asylum lost,
A time of need.
Faithless sheep,
Sweetless feeds,
Detached from them,
My sorrow bleeds.
A world doesn’t exist without the dichotomy of happiness and sorrow. The horrors of life present in the most miserable circumstances, as if ethereal endless deem your sorrow a necessity in destiny. Dreams only go so far, Fiddler’s Green a distant mirage in the Elysian paths, shrouded by the blackness of my heart. The spear of a fallen Valkyrie pierces my heart and my sorrow bleeds.
