The Beauty Of Death



There's a certain beauty in dying
The catch and release of your breath
Nothing is a certainty without trying
It all boils down to sunsetting death

That moment, the final torture
One last moment of violent strive 
And then you're free, the scorcher
Burns no more your struggling drive

Spiralling down to sacred quietude,
Tearing your guts in bits and shreds
The pain mutates to utopian solitude
Your life start unveiling all its heads

Bowed down, their hats come off
You're already mourning yourself
All you've dreamed, all you're proud of
Is dust and ash on an old hidden shelf

Death's face is seductively beautiful
So much that you live in constant search
Of a poison that is deep and fruitful
Enough to force your core to twist and lurch

Swirl and fall in your last suffering field
Your last collar and your last wine
The last kiss that your lust will yield
The last chain that will pierce your spine

You secretly flirt with death in pain
You feed him with your insides torn
He pats your cheeks, it won't be in vain
From your ashes my phoenix will be reborn

And that's when I will look fondly at him
And smile for all what I am is finally lost
The world around me grows warm and dim
And I leave with the lover I loved the most.
