Once so mighty and powerful

upon thrones of glory and gold

loved

envied

greedy; now they fall

through the clouds they plummet

through the seas they sink

into the abyss they travel

into the depths of infernum
they fall
they fall
they fall
angelis cadat (latin) : "The Angels fall"
infernum (latin) : "Hell"

there we see it
in the distance

at times it closes upon us
at times it flees our sight

but it returns as sure as tomorrow's sun
as sure as tomorrow's sun?

if ever there was a thing less certain
as the rise of the tomorrow's sun.

you
The sun has set
the stars now shine
the night darkens
and the cold surrounds us
my eyes grow tired
and my mind becomes weary

but still I think of You
Jay Ash Sep 2014
many days
and many nights
i have dreamt
of seeing You

yet whenever i am close
to You
i am in more pain than
when i am without You

i cannot live without You
but die when i am with You.
pulchra mortem (latin) : "a beautiful death"
Jay Ash Sep 2014
I knew you
you knew me.

now i pretend you are new
and you do the same;
we ask questions
that we have long known the answers to.

all in the hopes
that one day
you'll love me
as i have loved you
oblitus (latin): "forgotten"

What can we do
It hurts when we
Lie, it hurts when we smile
Let me go

Yours is the smile i want to see
Our hearts once ruled what has been
Usurped by stone

Live, die
Eat, starve
True, false

My heart is now the
Enemy

Death
Is now my friend
Everything that once was, no longer is. Or is it
?
Jay Ash Sep 2014
The path, chosen, has got us thus far
the sun now at our backs
casting many shadows before us
shadows of ourselves

as the light fails
our objective is lost

our journey has been hard
but now we are lost

the wolves howl
as night descends

we no longer know where to go
when once, it was all we had dreamt of

our hope now wanes
as the moon in the dark

the stars once bright
now blurred with fright

which way do we go?
for dark is all around us
no light, no hope

all is lost
the end
