Microcosm – A Forest Of Stars – letras

Nothing now but cages and railingsAll topped with barbsEven the weather’s apologeticSees no rhyme or reasonAll exits barred nowLove left lonely, gave way to the graveLeft my smile somewhere on the journey between that and lossThe walls of another god’s house encrusted in mouldSewage poured from ceiling, damp liquefied floorA building devoid of use, nowA weather beaten graveUntended -no longer remembered-ByThoseWhoLeftThe queueFor mourningMerrily kicking the skulls of ex-deitiesThrough the ex-halo hoops of toes up ex-angelsMore trophy heads for my wallsNo more crying about heaven or a lack of itNo more to be found wantingHoping for a safety netMy lake of passion still edged with rustHer waters fouled by the corpse of lustSo, I dug the last few feet of the six myselfAll too eager to taste the dustI laughed as I threw the first handful of earthI smiled as I watched the topsoil spreadAutumn she sprang over summer into winterAll was lost.All is lost.So much more snow than sunbeams these daysWhat once was?What once was.The cold she marched through the rainPast the corpse of rebirthblacked out the sun’s last refrain-endless cycle ended
