...And I Lust |
| Stately columns standing in solemn rows |
| Such empty honours are suitable for those |
| Whose death erases all renown and fame |
| And vanquishes their glory with their name |
| Wandering aimlessly through dead filled fields |
| Rewards are just |
| Who knows what absence yields? |
| By the golden beauty of dusk |
| And the sun low in our sky |
| By the haunting shadows of trees |
| And graves mesmerized am I |
| Searching deep inside trying to reach my dreams |
| I see a face stare back at me |
| Oh so serene |
| Those whispering shades |
| Sad silent glades |
| But not for those whose superior worth |
| After death extols them to the earth |
| I would even venture to assume |
| That one need not build for them a tomb |
| By human art, since glory heaven sent |
| Serves them as a living monument |
| Pain is a far away land |
| Misery |
| A lifetime’s journey |
| And I lust for death (judgement) |
