Disguised as Beings of Light

As midnights constellations
Gather from unnatural brilliance
Collecting the pieces
In which all burn
Within death’s darkly curtained halls
I’ve learned to know the desert ways
Whose wrath and hate i’ve sworn to tell
But sure with patience can bear
Alas, lessening from dazzled sight
Arose, midst the twilight pathways
As midnights constellations
Gather from unnatural brilliance
Where are they now
Lost, long gone by
Disguised as beings of light
Bear the grandeur with a disdainful smile
As the fire now is grown cold
Thought and form crumbling to dust
Seals up all in the rest
Yet what shadows they cast
As we tore ourselves asunder
We tore ourselves asunder
Ruined, emptied of virtue
Shattered and set free
Released from the pale
To ponder the darkness
As midnights constellations
Gather from unnatural brilliance
Where are they now
Lost, long gone by
Yet what shadows they cast
As we tore ourselves asunder
In the dead embers
All burn!
