First Light

In the beginning
God made the fragile oblivions 
I was burning with sunrise 
Yes the winds were singing
Desire burning this wasteland in me 
Besides this wind is how I die 
Running through moonlit hills of vanishing twilight
I was the stars afterbirth
I was the darkness rehearsed 
God hovering over the waters 
Desire burning a wasteland in me 
Falling for the midnights 
Desire burned like devastation in me 
Desire burned like wreckage in me 
Alchemist of sunlight you watched me rise
God hovering over the waters
Burning with 2 am sunrises 
There was darkness over the face of the deep—
I remembered your eyes like blue heaven and the darkness was breached—
To survive impossible disquiets in the midnights I crossed those fields of obsidian
One last act of selfishness
One last act of decadence 
Desire the dynamite in the night
Resurrecting every sunrise 
Besides this wind is how I die 
I vanished like disappearing twilight 
I vanished into that vast wilderness
