Lightning strikes the heart

Paralyzing

A bolt of grim resonance

tears open the world before me

Pale hands show the keys

Present cosmic mysteries

A cold maw seen agape

Sings secrets of eternity

Currents of great expanse

Riven mists of endless fog

Beacons enshrouded

Accelerate synapses

Only the wind is my road

A corridor of howling tempests

As autumns bitter razors

lacerate this vessel

Perception pierces facade

Abandon familiar brink

Diffuse mundane forms

Pale surroundings blurred

Estranged meridian

Adrift astral tide

Erosion of control

Mirrored dawn, inverted

An altar bare, save one blade

Which carved the oceans from the earth

And stained them a crimson hue

With the seas of every wound

So they sweep, so they sweep

Violently off, the shores of our time

Into the drift of infinity

To sing in the choir of the wind
