This penetrating pain

arousing from its sleep

This pallid flesh hiding

in shades These hollow

orbits watering the

ground Frantic ghouls

lurking in my shadow

Reptiles crawling under

my skin Temptations

Swansong from the tarn

Cold caresses of a

quivering shroud The

phasma cradling me in

its arms Its wormwood

tongue rasping my face

Flee from me spirits of

ferocity and open the

gates of this limbo

Come to me bringer of

joy and disembody my

pain Hinder the inflow

of figments Let them

gather in me no more

Stop the bleeding Heal

my wounds Melt the

frost in my veins

Dissolve the sickened-

red haze round me and

stop the toll of the knell
