Now the morn star, hung above my head, Came down from the fallen sky The touch of an Angel hands unto my shoulders- hail heaven from afar no-more thee to see but memories, Salute the last breath I breathe and wish away the warm desire of death- pale rain falls from the place the spirits rest drown me in the emotional downpours. Who gave birth, O envy, Too many lovers over my head O bless thee sweet tempresses- I drank for thirst unto lust And danger came from the refillable hunger, Thou art where thou art meant to be amongst the others waiting, Whomever shall set claim to me- What wilt the strangers say Angels gathering forming over one. Ah, what punishment awaits deaths whispers, To hide the sun beneath the earth whom infinite pain shall roar through and through- Hath forgiveness set me free from my conquested mistakes is the deep now the height longing to sooth me, As fate shall say its last farewell before the heart beats no-more This broken soul hath many wounds to show And the sandgrains fall to a halt- ’tis time to turn the hourglass to other world I see my recorded life playing over, Oft in lonesome tides shall I detect my fault- ’twas love from the beating of the heart and thou art one Angel awaiting me, The others shall be what they were meant to be lovers in the tides of my life. |

"Too many lovers over my head O bless thee sweet tempresses- I drank for thirst unto lust And danger came from the refillable hunger" I just couldn't resist these lines RedStone. Nice piece of work. |
