Void Picnic

How can I be... without you?


How can I be, without you?

It is there, forlorn cause

Forever out of view,

Not dragging for pause.

Beautiful as always,

Uglier as it flows.

What persists is surrender

To the rot or ashes.

Broken memorial through

Sights beyond horizon,

I weep without your gaze

Hateful as it shines.

Surrender is the will

Of a headless god

In truthful agony

Cyphered into being

For nothing, no more

Enchanted disgust.

Strange is the face that it wears

As the fated trance unveils

The rot that lingers over her.

Cassilda's lament, the twin suns

And the darkness of the lake.

She weeps without your gaze.

Never a frown lovers become

Blooming lillies above schola

Singing the song in unison.

A chorus dies unheard

While lovers went aground,

Dreadful as rain flows.

How can you be, without me?

She screams into the sky

As the twin moons slip behind

The mountain of her grief.

Forever out of reach,

Lost in promise.
