the son of endless night

the son of endless night.
++++++++++++++

Her Kisses made
the
world go blurry;

and
filled the skies
with
Half-Dead Light.

then I felt
an
inner
sense of hurry!

(to
outrun the
endless
night.)

+

i laughed
until
all tears
made
sense.

(then
wept with
jesters
sad, and
empty.)

The
Punchline?

Mortal
Innocence!!!

(consumed
by
external enemies.)

+

how
long before
i
die again?

(looking
into
You.)

trying to
be
a Hero of
Men!

(but
far too
fond
of Solitude.)

+

spare your
kisses
my old friend;

and
save those skies
of
half-dead light.

For Fate prefers
I
Do Not Mend!!

(I Am
The
Son Of
Endless
Night.)
