A simple symphony
Dreamt endlessly in stillness and silence
In the timeless void
Mute cascade
Washing over exulted forms
Swimming without motion
Comatose and existent
Soothed
Plucked from the seraphim strings
As the fervent sands embrace the tide
Figures levitate above the planet's core
My frame becomes molten
Smoldering to see magma waves engulf the Earth
Erasing the world we knew from its surface
Monuments and mountain peaks sunken to ruin below
All denied at the glacial walls of self
Angel wings pulverize the ceiling of my abyss
The man in the mirror's fragmentation
The surface exposed to the light
The order that danced in regretful form
Over top the ground
The return diminished
To reclaim oneself
Or tend to untoward scars
Vision blunted into remnants and desolation
I turn from the crown
And step down
Into the splintering haze
I yearn to be human
Will I ever live
I wish to exist
Now cast into ash
Dismal and quiet
Unsung in the depths
Rest my dreams
