Life

Just a nursery of deathless dead.....

Buried in sunken eyes sleep the dreams"
Countless corpses of abundant wishes"
As silent as a songbird that has lost its voice.
There reign phantoms of deeds
Like a sadist, remorseless ruler.

 

The magic wand destroys slumber, and
The dreams fall in"as loyal as Arthur’s soldiers;
They revel and to a fresh tune of promises
Till arrows kiss them as chosen prey.

Mortified they sink in dreamless sleep.

Peace prevails as martyrs die,
Deeds are done as dreams untie;
Life lies as a nursery of deathless dead.

Mortified they sink in dreamless sleep.
Peace prevails as martyrs die,
Deeds are done as dreams untie;
Life lies as a nursery of deathless dead.
