Veil

Celestine wandress Nascent torn Traitorous You bow to me A sickness corrodes the spine Failing the sun Unfortunate heir of throes Prophecy disdained In passing of this shame Ignoring me, you bleed And I watch you fall again Enough will it ever be? Failed as the one to see What's left of me, born mistake Your wounds carve a face Two of a kind Carried on your back Throughout your loathsome time This energy repulsed the death hanging from your hair Dread solitude In darkness lies the stare Decisions often dared Relief of a crime A suitor swarms the nest And leaves throughout the night Obscurity crowns your faith Creeping from this stone The withered lights, they cry to me You couldn't win alone Your wind carried mine Never told me why One last plea Save me the memory Cried beneath this autumn tree Tell the sea you meant it all to be Save yourself before they leave Resist your life away You weep onto the bedsheets Locked within your false throes Trapped within white, you bargain With your children to dispose The light that shines passed the peering shattered glass Illuminates all you've gave away For nothing Rinse the night from me To rid the sights today Behind the weightless door Lies what you have ignored The wisp decides to pray Its wish, denied and strained A light the fainted tore What's left of you washed ashore
