you were always my favourite dream

the iris in the darkness of my soul

catastrophic resolutes in the dying light

i wish so much to be alive within you

marred by the thousand cuts for your love

annexed my soul to be one of you

ambiguous hopeless in the feign of the sky

weep for the moon doesn't mind

the nights are cold again

you made the warmth of my soul

god killed himself to make the best of you

i guess he did not cut deep enough

you are eternal in my words

even if you won't be eternal in my arms

eternal in my heart so punctured

maybe not in my life you will be

tomorrow there won't be a honey

blood will seep from our eyes

you will be my love forever

even when my heart no longer beats
