Night / Obliteration
My memories grow in wounds. Down to the marrow in my bones. You are farther than the wasting stars, gone by decadent dawn. Who am I in the blades of darkness? Who am I to be lost in the cosmos? The past is a catastrophe. What deity dreams of obliterating me? In the monastery of clouds my griefs are less loud. On the verge of Being, the days are breaking me. Desire is annihilation, night is obliteration. With the defiance of Icarus, I witnessed the infinite. Do not abandon me in this wasteland. Vanishing is the work of the winds. Moonrise in the white hills, I witnessed the infinite. The decadence of the ages! You tarnish me like I was a fallen thing. I confess: I walked to the edge of desire again, the fires of creation at my fingertips like Prometheus, I witnessed the infinite. The darkness comes again, and I remember—I remember—who I am. Be my peace in the raging chaos. There are stormclouds on the coast waiting for me. A paradise in the shadows. Lost in apotheosis, what I chose holds me like ropes at my throat. As the fallen angels screaming with desire, I am a tarnished being. Illuminations from ebbing evening, I witnessed the infinite—
Night obliteration, there is anguished grief from dreaming
Resurrection fire at your lips, in your eyes I witnessed eternities
Let us leave for another world at the burning horizons— I am sinking in this life
My love, won't you die from desire with me one more time?
In the reins of desire, I witnessed the infinite
Sunrise in the ravine, I witnessed the infinite
Seasons of storms, allow me to be born again
Memory and dream, obliterate me with yearning
The euphoria of Desire! I quiver in your fingertips, I witnessed the infinite
Where are you, my reprieve? I wither from this punishing grief
Brigand with a rebellion of wings in howling winds, I witnessed the infinite
Desire the barbiturate blade at my breathless throat
The nightmares came in gales, you kept me breathing
Sweet summer I surrender to your ambrosial fires
Desire seething inside of me, on the verge of annihilation, I witnessed the infinite
Mining the stars’ bright myriads, I witnessed the infinite
Seasons of shadows, I am rootless on this barren earth
Allow me to be born again in the decadence of your arms
Your arms my molasses in the darkness, I witnessed the infinite
Witness your willful captive, I was chained to desire
A breath of life at your lips, I witnessed the infinite
The hazard of dreams, desire, you betrayed me like I was a fallen thing
At the black gates of galaxies, I witnessed the infinite
Divine desperation, I am a wild thing afflicted with desire again
Creation, this infinite fire at my fingertips, I witnessed the infinite
This nightmare obliterates me before morning
Desire, when lifted in your divine wings, I am at your mercy
Rebellion with an eternal Being, I witnessed the infinite
Life is grief and metamorphosis, resurrection fire at your lips
On a railroad to the scarred stars, yearning after light, I witnessed the infinite
Let us leave for another world at the burning horizon—I am sinking in this life
Oh I was dreaming of mercy in the midnights, I witnessed the infinite
Then those dark seas of eternity witnessed me in ecstasy
