Will or Testament A sore and painful ship of sail Plows deep within a bed of ail To steer a course in tortured force To find a patch of sun and moss But blind is not a course to sail When retched sore and sneeze prevail When sore and painful tortured force Brings havoc to the only source. What fiend of gel has brought this swell? This dancing bleeding awful hell That chokes my throat and tears my eyes And speaks in whispers of demise We’ve met before this demon dare Who tortures me in black despair? He tests me every now and then And swears he will be back again. He laughs and screams I cannot hide We live the very it abide. But with my knell so goes his dwell Perhaps he’ll spare me to get well. One battle lost is not an end Infinity has only bend. |
