The smell of camphor in the dark
Her heart has bled dry
For days I've sought the cause
My fight is true
Bridges burn to light the way
Never have I yearned for something more
Luck be with me this day
Affront the spirit
Cinder ablaze
Ashen and Hesitant
Wearing vengeance upon my face
Reanimate
Here in the garden of ice
no one fears the snake
Sigh in the shadows of the setting sun
Obsidian encrusted face
Cautious of your every move
Watching over his dominion as does the nesting loon
Blanch at the azure gaze of the chosen one
For he holds the knowledge to set the world undone
Suppress the voices
Prevent regret
Broken yet immaculate
Displaying vigilance in you place
it's not too late
Reanimate
