A child was born in silence 
And winter rose to clothe itself 
With a voice of one who weeps 
I curse this memory 
You held the hand of hope 
With glory's wreath 
And deceiver's promise 
The vows your lips have sworn 
Tomorrow wear decay 
Stifled sobs 
Bow to cold laughter 
The breeze is speechless 
As the dust drinks the dew 
A child-like hope 
With fear betrothed 
Never ceases to kiss my feet 
This is my final lamenting kiss 
I have spun my last thread 
My dreams have broke 
My jewels are tarnished 
The wailings of the heart 
Are with the unborn 
Dreams of poetry 
It is cold within 
My knotted hand strikes 
A tuneless chord 
The noise of tongues 
In my darkened labyrinth 
Prophesies are withered 
To a face careworn 
Why have I forsaken you? 
The dove so long imprisoned 
Sour remembrance 
Of a day never born 
My retreating steps 
Are clothed in shadows 
Laden in black 
A man forsworn 
Heaven wept 
For the wounds that bled 
Tears more bitter than blood 
Vex my soul 
I am thrown on your mercies 
Yet my heart is still hardened 
Weep for me, my god, weep for me 
Sooth my grief 
Through my artless prayers 
My tears burden your aching soul 
I held hope's hand 
But let her forsake me 
May I be faithful 
To hold onto yours 
To my god of darkness 
My somber romantic
