Around, all around, the shadows gather.
My dread grows as an avenging sword falls against my naked soul.
It slays me,
and darkly my essence drips
to the wicked earth that is my prison.
In my madness I fall limply
while nothingness laughs cruelly.
Now alone, my cascade of tears falls upon howling eyes.
This is my salvation
