Symphony of Darkness
Sitting in the dark
Eyes closed not sleep
Resting the body
Expanding the mind
Bring forth the drums
Slow everything down
Crush down emotions
The dreams that might
Any legends of the mind
Tune up the mind
Focus out the body
Ignore it's whines
Feel the blood slow
Turn off its feelings
Let breathing flow
Ears pick the smallest
Another distraction
Tone it down
Relax each muscle
Spin coherency away
Focus on the pounding
Rhythmic, stone on leather
Heartbeats pound, thump
War drums of bringing
And the taking of life
Breath, set it's tempo
Draw that tarot card
See, read the choice
Picked by the drum
Of swords, a nine
Still closed, sleep not close
Bring me fire, bring fight
Give me anything, but this
See inside, see so far
Drift not, stay on track
See the ace, fill your cups
Seek wine, lose your mind
Twist that thought
Thunder drums
Lightning fast
Hear it's crack
Break the sky
Split my world
Falling with drums
Twinkling bits of star
No need to question
Blood pumps the beat
Violent, just beneath
Calm meditation
No movement betrays
Look to her
A queen, regal
In her cups
Then turn away
Apologize, haute glare
Let it fall, let it drift
No need to fight
Carry not for death
Let it out, set free
Close off emotions
Seek plenty, find peace
Find the rhythm seek pace
Don't let sword or cups
Wreck logic or spread
Bind damage to pain
Let darkness fall
Hear the symphony
Drift in silence
Float out slow
Kiss you in sleep
