Celestial Palace

Fear flies seeking far Celestial palace.
Wane, my life with wild September gale,
Drop with dusk that fills the Godly Chalice
And jewels the sky with comets fiery tail
The skies and starry heavens of tomorrow
Refracting life and revelling in light
So comforts me and shadows hurt and sorrow
I don't think I'll be going home tonight.
Come with me and dance my shining brother
Your light evokes a fragment of before
The fragrant memories of one another;
I don't think father loves us any more.
Ego leaves its conscious nest, is set free
Recedes and views me, I the lonesome flame
I flicker, shudder, evil's crawling through me
I don't think this is real, its just a game.
And when my mind returns to earthly dwelling
Still no respite in your world can be found
The seed of darkness in the womb is swelling
I don't think his seed soaks the dusty ground
A bough, a tree, the long-gone woods have hidden
A secret that had torn me from the start
The words and scenes of pain were then forbidden
I don't think I can open up my heart.
Coiled within my body like an asp snake
Lies all the poisoned pain that taints my soul
I'd turn away my own life I would now take
I don't think I've escaped from his control.
It burns it aches and pulls on every muscle
Disgraced and naked, blanketed in shame
The forceful thrust, where gentle treeleafs rustle
I don't think he withdrew the chords of blame
Fear flies seeking far Celestial palace.
Wane, my life with wild November gale,
Drop with dusk that fills the Godly Chalice
I don't think that the child was doomed to fail
