Tranquility Exacerpated

 
My love is a blistering inferno - tormenting my chest. O’ peril, o’ unknown lists and desires. Will I ever find the one -?

Unseen unknowing - hiding in shadows… Careless words - travesty harnessed, sharp less longings twist their vices. Pull me from the abyss -

Nights without sleep - praying to dumb skies, tears shaken from the tree of wrath. Weeping and wailing - tearing of hair, suffering becomes my familiar -

The moon abashed - the sun ashamed, wickedness within my lusts. Desire - pleasure, all part of my pain, even my hair is black as a raven -

Turn your eyes from me “Overwhelming - they frighten my inner being. Love rides a swift cloud - discarnate guides. My city is left in ruins, its gates shattered to pieces -
