Wither
From darkened heart all love depart
Sparked on as anger teems
And sorrows grow with tearful flow
As scars bleed withered dreams
The ship once filled with hopes abound
Now sits ‘pon empty seas
And sails once fueled by winds of time
Drift now on hollow breeze
The sky be void of earthly light
Paint dark with ebon views
The stars and moon inked by the heart
That spirit’s tone imbues
Greet not the day with joyful rhyme
No pleasant dreams impart
Bring darkness from the edge of time
Beat not thy empty heart
Through arrow's quest pierce deep thy chest
As rose bleeds through it’s thorn
And honor stings from crimson rings
Of blood swept from the morn
