long lost lilac lakes

The wretched­ness of there to be
no fu­ture nor his­to­ry
make me drown in your hon­ey

The sug­ary pur­ple nec­tar flows in my lungs
this world is not my pedi­gree
in the abyss of your com­fort­ing melan­cholic ails

I com­fort my­self for the rap­ture
which to the dai­ly will be hell

And to me one more for my sad­ness one spell

I feel the sweet­est poi­son take me away
chal­ice to my sin­is­ter mass­es

If I could raise thee
long lost lilac lakes

To flood    to cast out your mar­ble spir­it

Wash all the rub­ble from this earth
then still we be alone you and me

My dis­ease and my death

In you some an­gels hide
some sirens feisty willed
and robed spikes of gold and sil­ver
your poi­son fumes that none my bare

Your aware­ness soft­ly and frailty stare
into a cold des­o­late desert op­posed to
the flower full of juice and moist

Dew of alert­ed­ness
gal­low of fear

I find so­lace only
in this mist in which I to oth­ers dis­ap­pear

The cloud of my thoughts
the smite deeply yearn­ing of my heart
