Void - Seeker

Poison goes down

And warmth climbs up through open throats

Lay on the bed

Hands clasped

Whisper in the empty room until death drips from eyes and tongues

Black circlet around your head

Hidden power radiating

You accept the end as we cry into spirals and void

Can’t live without you but your comfort in the end outweighs all

The pale glow creeps in through the window amidst shouts and broken fingers

Determination not to be outdone

You were the hooded shadow waiting with outstretched hands

The blackness writhes behind you

Pull me in
