So profound was the stillness, And heavy was the dark, I could not rise and see the morning. So piercing was the silence, So clamorous was the void, It pricked my ears like needles And drew me near with siren song. A shadow in the darkness, I crept thoughtless towards the empty. It wrapped me in clandestine, And dragged me into the obscure. A sleep from whence there is no wake, A night without a dawn, A place where twilight kisses dusk, And all light dies in silence.

Death
So profound was the stillness, And heavy was the dark, I could not rise and see the morning. So piercing was the silence, So clamorous was the void, It pricked my ears like needles And drew me near with siren song. A shadow in the darkness, I crept thoughtless towards the empty. It wrapped me in clandestine, And dragged me into the obscure. A sleep from whence there is no wake, A night without a dawn, A place where twilight kisses dusk, And all light dies in silence.
