The Angel From My Nightmares

Silent went the angel from my nightmares,

The echo of all my seething prayers,

Silence swept the core of the dark forest,

Every leaf and nest mourned the coming frost.

Mute went the high mountains and restless wind,

Senility deranged all drops of red,

Dead! Slow bleed all the dim-shining ghostwriters,

The old trumpet rested the last fighters.

 

And amidst the thickening mist, I twist!

No lantern the coming dark can persist,

Coldness burns my limbs, Final ritual"

To kill any fleeting residual.

The last clock with both pointers missing… Ticks!

Sacrificing time for the coming eclipse,

When hope fades out from all of your prayers

Silent goes the angel from your nightmares.
