Entry #72: Peace Everlasting (Poem)

The darkness is my home, the shadows are the windows to my kingdom.

Crawl between my ribs, climb into my heart and find respite.

Touch my spirit, feel the everlasting winter.

My many limbs spread out across this dreamless void.

Expanding my domain as the veil is unfurled further.

Hear my cries, my laughter and my screams.

A chorus of agony, joy, and passion.

Rest here in my hollow garden.

Accept my bouquet of madness.

The flowers here are forever blossoming and undying.

Do not shy away from me, for angels cannot see you here.

For the eyes of heaven are but crimson sockets, I have plucked them out for you.

The gods are dead, I have built a throne from their bones.

I have sealed their still hearts in their newfound tombs beneath me.

Drink of me, and feast upon me.

Pray at my shadowed temple and know peace everlasting.
