Gaze away at the iridescent Cemetery sunrise
While harbouring anger
From previous lifetimes
The seeds of petty discontent bloomed into a field of sorrow
In it lies a path
That meanders through
Tracing the origins of tragedy
And leading back to the womb
Memories of October
When you were highly favoured
Are etched on your skin
Like old scars
Brought back from war
You dissolve in the shadows
Of the light shines upon them all
Always the forgotten
Struck with two little arrows
Is your heart in your hands
Always in your trembling hands
Your resolve wore thin
Safe as houses no more
No longer will you bury yourself
beneath these sins
The flood of aftereffect
Is corroding what remains
When the time comes
I will stand on the gallows
Beside you.
