Scarlet eyes are
Gazing up toward
Starless skies and
Moonless clouds
Indigo horizons claim
The souls of stars
In silver shrouds

Fly away
And scream your melodies
Forget about the blind mirages
On your mellow seas

Forget about the sun
Forget about the light
The echoes in the dark
Will offer vision to the
Sightless

Madness creeps where
Sadness sleeps on
Tattered sheets
A crying pillow
Grayer hues of
Prayer issue
Suppressing dew
On weeping willows

Fly away
And scream your melodies
Forget about the dark illusions
In your reveries

Forget about the sun
Forget about the sky
The angels in the dark
Will guide the
Wingless and the flightless

Flames die down
A smoky crown
Upon the shadows
Cloaked in white
Silhouettes in
Darkness shade the
Whispers of
A warm midnight
