Death And Desire (12 of 16)

 

Surrounded by death
as close as I can be to what's left of him
I pray and plead to a memory
a name carved in stone

He promised
he promised heaven sent
yet only
a beautiful Hades arrived

After emptying my fears upon the cold rock
I hear a warm voice
quiet
distant
until it is all around

Has the promise finally been kept

Am I safe
held in white wings of song
or are those black feathers I see
embracing me

And why don't I want to run
