Apparitions Of The Sky
My Life's Despair
Look up, you will see, the entirety
Ancient entities, dead from eons ago
They travel through space and time
Apparitions of the sky, corpses rotting slow
I gaze and marvel at our majestic scenery
Shadows of life long gone, how peaceful they seem
Swirling madness of chaos, the patterns they form
I long for longevity, echoing through eternity
Count them!
If you try
Count them, watch them die
I have seen them fall
I have seen them darkened
I have seen them dim
Falling again
I have seen them bright
I have seen them daunting
I have seen them inspire
Always haunting me
Look up, you will see, the entirety
Ancient entities, dead from eons ago
They travel through space and time
Apparitions of the sky, corpses rotting slow
Your eyes turn misty, as you gaze upon the ancient gore
You bask in their perceived warmth, knowing they exist no more
Stunned by silence, struck by awe
Revered through knowledge, death comes for all
A last silent glimpse, as the their fading light gleams
We gaze and wonder, hopelessness is all it seems
