Memories Engraved in Stone

Silent field Life stands still Falling mist, timeless bliss Sunless sky In my eye Sombre day, lifeless clouds so grey Abandoned And lost, you feel so dead An empty, worthless soul Withering away Led astray On this gloomy day Drowning in your tears, this day seems so long Wallowing in your despair, cast aside by God Nothing left, no desire, no will to carry on Lay yourself to rest and join the carrion Call upon my name, I will hear your cries Embrace the dying light, with sullen eyes Follow the path my friend, soon your strife will end Take one final breath, death the eternal rest The sorrowness that grows, it leaves you so morose Unrelenting pain like falling drops of rain Such a perfect day to fill an empty grave What's the point of life, we grow old, weak and die Neverending cry for a suicide Abysmal descension into deep chasms Of your feebled mind, the darkness it enshrines All consuming hunger to sleep the deep slumber Engulfed in brimstone fire, suffering transpires Such a fitting end, this wasted bag of flesh Silent field Life stands still Falling mist, timeless bliss Sunless sky In my eye Sombre day, lifeless clouds so grey Fallen one Crestfallen Why so sad, take my hand Far beyond Woebegone Tragic truth, sadness wreathed in gloom Call upon my name, I will hear your cries Embrace the dying light, with sullen eyes Follow the path my friend, soon your strife will end Take one final breath, death the eternal rest Such a lonely fool, so fragile Failed to see, a reason to be An unavailing end, a tragedy To leave this life so soon We struggle on this earth to be free But sometimes only death will bring you peace Lifeless, so pale and blue Caressed by the cold hand of doom Eternal rest for those wreathed in gloom

Countless graves earth removed for those who've since gone Gathered in blackened cloaks Grief-stricken spectres mourn Buried six feet below as dirt falls from above Standing in the pouring rain Heads bowed, eyes closed, grieving day Mourners gathered, let us pray For the dearly departed So long, farewell, beloved See you soon my lonely friend Unmarked grave, nameless tomb Forgotten To time Veiled eyes, flowing tears Loved ones cry In pain Eulogy delivered By the priest Solemn All candles are snuffed out Extinguish The light Entombed My heart is gone and empty Sleep dream angel so lovely It is our lot to pass through The jaws of death eternal doom Carry the dead Bury the dead May you rest in peace An eve in mourning Countless graves earth removed for those who've since gone Gathered in blackened cloaks Grief-stricken spectres mourn Buried six feet below as dirt falls from above Standing in the pouring rain Heads bowed, eyes closed, grieving day Mourners gathered, let us pray For the dearly departed So long, farewell, beloved See you soon my lonely friend

Deep beneath the earth Remnants of a life now buried in the dirt Skeletal mass turned into dust Fading with time your name begins to rust Monument to a tragic day Weathered and crumbling away Extracted from the world's womb Blackened roses placed upon your tomb Everlasting grief and misery And I walk this foreboding path It echoes old memories from the past Despondent statues seem to cry Agony appears frozen in time A cold wind gently sweeps across my skin Invoking great sorrow deep within There is no hope left in me Your physical being I can't see Eroding faces oh so bleak Their eyes, staring at me I can't speak Take the time to remember those whom you love Nothing lasts forever, not even the sun Forever gone your body rots in slow decay Never to be forgotten, your name Engraved in stone Standing by your bedside A helpless body lies Consumed by sickness Such a sad frail existence With eyes so empty You reached out to me And gently whispered Words of anguish and fear Solemn faces Forgotten places Mournful passings Angelic castings in stone Take the time to remember those whom you love Nothing lasts forever, not even the sun Forever gone your body rots in slow decay Never to be forgotten, your name engraved I seek solace from your death And I regret Bringing you into this world Alone and so cold Please give me the strength this day Forlorn and dismayed Fill your heart with empty tears But alas how many hopes and dreams lie buried here

Through these weary eyes Death I contemplate Endless shattered dreams And regret For so many years I've been so alone Bound in emptiness Wilted hope Even though I live I am dead inside Release me from this Grim reality All is lost In perfect misery I scream in agony Transcend the boundaries Of human suffering Nihilist despair Omnipresent fear Gripped in sorrow's claws Labyrinth of loss Eternal hatred grows Crowned in misanthrope Burdened existence Sanguineness so distant Hopeless endeavor to be remembered Falling forever deep into despair Despondent life Morose entrapment enslaved by torment Utter depression mental regression Suture these eyes Salvation Is a lie Absent faith Love denied Sorrow's grace Full embrace Unending Misery Pray in vain Brimful disgrace Lost forever Abysmal fall Unrelenting Anguish path Usurpation Of joy's throne Isolation Breathless angst Desolation Voice silenced Separation From your soul Excommunion To death's hold Congregation Great waiting Melancholy Release me I am lost without you Whosoever you may be Passerby please stop read and weep I am what you are going to be And I was once what you are Laid to rest on a bed of thorns Resignation from weak life Pitiful lungs collapsing Reach for the bleak horizon and die Die!!!
