Inspired by the artwork of Tim Bradstreet “Prey for Daylight”
UNDER HEAVY SOULS
I’VE FOUND YOUR FINAL HAVEN
I KNEEL AND PRESS MY LIPS TO COLD MARBLE
WINDS BLOW THROUGH THE FOREST OF MY MIND
SWAYING LIFELESS TREES OF EMOTIONS
I LOVED YOU
BESTOWER OF LIFE ETERNAL
MY UTMOST FANTASY
TO BE YOU
ROYAL AND SUPREME
MASTER OF MY DOMAIN
I HATED YOU
MASTER OF LIES
HOLDING ME
YOUR THRALL
CONDEMNING ME
LOVED
CRYED
FOUGHT
ALL THIS WE HAVE DONE
AS I KNEEL BEFORE YOUR FINAL RESTING PLACE
I CONTEMPLATE LIFE
WITHOUT YOUR PRESENCE
THERE IS BUT ONE THING
LEFT TO DO
SO I WAIT
TO BECOME PREY
FOR DAYLIGHT
I wrote this in college, quite a few years ago. If any of you have not seen the artwork referred to above, I highly recommend it 🙂
