Theophobos

Theophobos (Greek: Θεόφοβος) or Theophobus, originally Nasir (ناصر), Nasr (نصر), or Nusayr (نصیر), was an Iranian commander of the Khurramites who converted to Christianity and entered Byzantine service under Emperor Theophilos (r. 829–843). Raised to high rank and married into the imperial family, Theophobos was given command of his fellow Khurramites and served under Theophilos in his wars against the Abbasid Caliphate in 837–838. After the Byzantines' defeat at the Battle of Anzen, he was proclaimed emperor by his own men, but did not pursue this claim. Instead he peacefully submitted to Theophilos in the next year and was apparently pardoned, until he was executed by the dying emperor in 842 to prevent a challenge to the accession of Michael III. more »

Love bears all things
Believes all things
Hopes all things
Endures all things

Abundance of lies on ecclesiastical texts

Subjective comprehension
A thousand roads to salvation
Where everything is nothing
And nothing is everything

On the other side lies
Everything that defines me
Buried my escence
On the other side

Daffodil halls of enigma
Death carnation
Rotten rose

The spirit of my love eternal
What nourishes me
Existence itself
To simplicity reduced
Life itself

Shifted and gone
Beyond abyss
On my side where nothing is left
Nothing to lose

Swim to the other side
Without knowing for sure what lies beyond
The abyss from which we escape
But eventually we reach
Death

So I can't see
The sound of loneliness
Feeling warmth nocturne
Mesmerizing lament

So I can't see
The sound of loneliness
Feeling warmth nocturne
Mesmerizing lament

Sun eternal on my eyes
I never closed
Blinded by god
Blinded by faith

By this ephemeral
Existence
Break out
Let go from this
Simulation

Sun eternal on my eyes

The graveyard of the darkest
Thoughts on humanity's mind
Whispers from the source of evil
Spawning threats throughout eons

The graveyard of the darkest
Thoughts on humanity's mind
Whispers from the source of evil
Spawning threats throughout eons

Sun eternal
Shall free me
Unnatural balance
Born within the edge of horror

Sun eternal on my eyes
Sun eternal on my eyes
Sun eternal on my eyes
Sun eternal on my eyes

I never closed
Blinded by god
Blinded by faith
By this ephemeral existence
Blinded by god
Blinded by faith

I never closed
Blinded by god
Blinded by faith
By this ephemeral existence
Blinded by god
