White noise Then darkness The awful darkness... Rites of burial are spoken Before the last descent Down...beneath the realm of the living, Deadened eyes Extinguished dreams Muffled sounds As the coffin's lid Is slowly nailed shut. White noise Then darkness The burden of existence Lifted Free from this dreadful "gift" Life The long sleep of withering upon you at last... Welcome to eternity

Stone pillars crumble at the feet of iconoclasts Accursed omen of the coming extinction Dust billows above, blotting out the last arcs of sunlight Shadows negate all; windswept death descends. A thousand nights of plagued slumber to come That we may transcend all pain into the darkest depths of unreality The great destruction lies in wait; visions have prophesized What shall stir from the burning rubble. The eons beyond sleep in darkness visible... Those who scored the eyes of the sacrosanct Afflicted with eternal tribulation and raging pestilence Feel death approaching-already devouring their very will As the fall before the sound of the dying knell Oh, what great beast shall stir from the rubble? The eons beyond sleep in darkness visible...

Alone, rational thoughts submerged by the fear Dark, only faint visions of the cruelty appear In sporadic tone, the composition of beauty turned grim and cold... Once again, I must face the horrors of regret Antiquity arrives before it is welcomed Only to leave behind an empty shell of delirium. Waiting only prolongs the wanting Living only prolongs the arriving Death knows no regret of a mournful refusal. In sporadic tones the compositions of beauty turned grim and cold...

Thoughts migrate nowhere, sullen birds of prey Swallowed by jet black dreams of death in foul slumber A world beyond affliction; When the calling lulls us into our infinite beds And the droning pulse of nihilism mocks us From across lightless fissures of consciousness. Writhing...Burning Alive only to host the Stygian torment Pitied we are When deep sleep falls upon mankind. Hopeless we fall Into the fathomless depths of this virulent dream. And from the haunted arms of Morpheus, We arise to a different despair.

Eternity has no bottom It is the breath of a dying sun Exhaling its icy last gasp Above the pillars of the dark corruption. Hanging low in the vast nothingness, Symbol of destiny - mirror of the ages. Eternity is an illusion Burning quickly away into molecular shadow There is no measure of it; it's depth in endless It is in the eyes of all who see. Elusive, the antithesis of light devours life And eventually, eternity shall endure When all else has fallen to myth; and no dream is left to believe. Eternity is dust - a churning sea of pale dementia Burying, reaping beneath the ashen shroud of heaven. Desolate father of all time Awaits the final breath...and stands a lonely vigil To greet you in the inevitable darkness once again.

I watched... From mountains of spirit, Where gods claim the universe. I watched... As life lingered in sordid desperation. My hidden, true form Became a mask of solitude A prodigal reflection Of human depreciation Utter isolation approaching nirvana. Beckoning me to my womb... Back to the earth The end arrives peacefully - With silent finality So swift, across eons Not even legend remained. Streams of pain descend Like purifying waters In this hideous bliss - I taste the last of vitality.
