Asphodel


Damn clock stopped ticking at close seven thirty
Now I’m lost from your prosperous appearance
Drawling sighs so aspirately said
Put in trance, half-baked with mortality

Expecting your return with profound recess
Awe unvented in reaching crescendo
Can’t count minutes very well, to bad
Hell doesn’t care if I would anyway

Bloom in the middle of windy September
Save for these lies so untold
Replenish the strength of a lovelorn heart
Seared dreams of my fellow myrmidon

Take refuge in a balky casket
Pinned in deep fright pain
Lucky damsel left nothing but grief
And only a few days of sad memories
