2nd one...


                         The lights are dimmed
                         where nothing grows,
                         Meet me in the grove of groves.

                         The heart has stopped
                         in mid-life beat,
                         This is the fall of something sweet.

                         Your trembling eyes
                         meet me half-way,
                         Your final breath was yesterday.

                         The earth has chosen
                         to cast you out,
                         Now you've lost your final bout.

                         The skies rip open and out falls nothing,
                         never had faith, stayed away from pollution.
                         You talked to me in shadowy dreams
                         and told me i had nothing but still i should be.
                         I choked on blood and spilled my cup,
                         this is the key to unlock my cuffs.
                         My heart atrophies in the sea's embrace,
                         Death then love, there is no place to be.



"'I am the the lizard king
I can do anything
I can make the earth stop in its tracks
I made the blue cars go away

I love these lines

Your trembling eyes
                         meet me half-way,
                         Your final breath was yesterday.

Great work.
